Make Halloween Catholic again!
For centuries, Halloween had been a
Catholic
holiday,
All Hallows Eve.
Isn't it high time we got back to telling tales of Catholic horror where the enemy is the devil and his demons, and failure means an eternity in hell?
This collection of ten
Edgy Catholic
tales will keep you on the edge of your seat, whether it's Halloween or any other spooky night when the moon is full...
Follow along as a mysterious child haunts a woman's dreams in
The Ghost of Halloween Past
, or witness a painter complete a killer work of art in
The Self-Portrait of Andre Duvall
. And don't miss out on
Home for Christmas
, where a man is forced to confront his past during the holiday season. These and other thrilling stories will leave you wanting more.
The Ghost of Halloween Past and Other Catholic Tales from the Edge is a collection of short stories written by
Joseph Cillo Jr.
that include
preternatural
and
speculative
elements and are meant to be spooky.
Experience the horror from a Catholic perspective!
The stories deal with disturbing possibilities but generally fall into a PG-13 rating. Some of the stories may be shared with younger children, but parental discretion is advised. The stories are written from a Catholic perspective, mostly about Catholic characters, and at times include unsavory preternatural things like ghosts and people possessed by demons. The endings are not always happy, and the good guy does not always win. But fear not, there are no werewolves, vampires or other critters who roam freely elsewhere in the horror genre.
Trigger warning:
If you are looking for a trigger warning, this book is not for you. While there is no offensive language nor descriptions of nudity in these stories, mature, modern themes are engaged from a Catholic perspective and the author expects the effect may be unnerving. It would not be practical to list everything that might be triggering. And, a warning would be a bit of a spoiler.
