Douglas Ford Book order

Douglas Ford's first collection of horror fiction, Ape in the Ring was called a "must have collection for every horror library" by Owl Goingback. Now, from the author of the best-selling The Beasts of Vissaria County comes a new collection of tales that will infect your imagination and unsettle your dreams. In these stories, a horrific truth lies concealed beneath the wrappings of a mummy costume; a church potluck becomes the scene of a satanic communion; the ruins of a road-side attraction hides a forgotten, monstrous entity; an illicit transaction in a hotel room awakens a demonic presence; an overnight trip in the Everglades is disturbed by something unworldly preserved in an old still of moonshine; and in the title story, the presence of a black box brings dread to a gathering of teenagers. Welcome to the party and enjoy the refreshments-if you dare!

From the author of Ape in the Ring and The Reattachment comes a tale of transgressive love and unnatural birth. When Madeline senses something missing from her life with Trevor, she tries to fill the gulf between them by ordering a leech from a medical supply company. Troubled by this new pet and the special feedings it requires, Trevor must also deal with his co-worker’s Ahab-like obsession with killing a monstrous pig, a creature of myth known as “The Minister.” Finding this creature brings Trevor to a reckoning with the truth behind the arcane beliefs and practices of a lost cult, as well as the meaning behind problems much closer to home.With undertones of folk horror, Little Lugosi: A Love Story, is a bizarro odyssey of blood and other bodily fluids.

A lucky find and a single telephone call leads to an amazing Mexican adventure for George and his sister Amy.
