THE NECRONOMICON PAGES: STORIES OF THE INFAMOUS, LOVECRAFTIAN GRIMOIRE

Raffaele Pezzella, through Eighth Tower Publications, has just released the latest in The Dark Fiction anthologies, The Necronomicon Pages: Stories of the Infamous, Lovecraftian Grimoire

This ambitious curation contains submissions by John D. Chadwick (who bestows a historical intro); Chris McAuley, J. Edwin Buja; Nora B. Peevy, Michael F. Housel, Russell Smeaton, Andrew Coulthard and Sarah Walker (who also edited the edition), with its cover and interior illustrations by the ever mysterious Mr. Zarono. 

The enclosed madness is tied to Abdul Alhazred's fabled text, making for a unique, straight-from-the-source twist on the Lovecraft's literary legacy.

The Necronomicon Pages will enthrall all Lovecraftian disciples, as it adds another macabre notch to the ever-growing Dark Fiction series.

EIGHTH TOWER'S DARK FICTION SERIES: SIX & GROWING

Raffaele Pezzella's Dark Fiction series continues to grow per Eighth Tower Records/Publishing, with more editions on the horizon. As of present, there are six to be had, and I have a story in five of 'em!

There's The Black Stone: Stories for Lovecraftian Summonings, which includes my Outer Limits-ish "Tentacled".

Next up is The Beyond: Stories Inspired by the Lucio Fulci Death Trilogy, which features my seaside-relegated, Gates of Hell fable, "Summer Urges". 

Third in queue is The Body of Horror: Stories Inspired by the Cinema of David Cronenberg, wherein I overlap The Brood with Videodrome.

In a return to H.P. terror, the fourth entry is Through the Gates of Yog-Sothoth, with my weird, interdimensional shocker, "Yog-Sothoth, Beyond the Border". 

Bram Stoker's Dracula, the 125th Anniversary Edition then intercedes for #5, which is accentuated by John D. Chadwick's chilling illustrations.

TerrorVision: Stories Inspired by Cult Horror and Sci-Fi FilmSF is the latest in the series and covers a number of movie-maker tributes, including my Sam Raimi/Clive Barker, Lovecraftian knockoff, "Evil, Little Demon". 

Each edition can be purchased in soft or hardback through Amazon or one can leap right in at the Eighth Tower hub, Bandcamp, where (in certain instances) musical (CD) accompaniments are also available:
