Synopsis:

Halloween. For the costumed child skipping along a safe, well-lit street, pillowcase chock full of candy, it is a night of magic and mischief, delightful frights met with sugar-toothed grins. But for the would-be revelers in these tales, Halloween is a horrifying ordeal the likes of which many will not survive. And those who do make it to November may wish they hadn’t.

In this collection, Jason Parent gathers ten tales that embody the holiday in ways surely to surprise and delight the most avid horror reader. From traditional settings like amusement parks, Halloween parties, and haunted houses to more obscure locales where you might think terror couldn’t possibly find you, each story will have you breathing a little faster, startling at every bump in the night.

Review:

"We all go a little mad sometimes."

Halloween, a night of mischief, shenanigans, and diabolical scares!

What better time to read a Halloween themed book of short stories than in Spooky October!

Step in and visit a house of horrors, take a late-night walk with a war veteran out for a drink on the Dia De Los Muertos, bullies beware, be careful who you choose to pick on, you may run into a blood sucking creature and receive deadly consequences for your deplorable actions, after all it is All Hallows Eve when the spirits and monsters are restless. 

A robbery gone wrong when the owners are so very welcoming. Scary stories shared while out for tricks and treats in Orlando where Halloween just does not feel quite right. 

What could be worse than severe weather on Halloween night? The night children are excited for, all dressed up in their special costumes, ready to go, finding out they cannot... so extremely disappointed. Dad steps in to try to save the night for his two boys, giving them candy and telling them a scary story. Is it real? or just a terrifying story to scare them?

Do you want to punish a cheating husband? Just take him to Frightmare to exact your revenge! Honestly, no one will ever know! A spooky carnival ride, Woo-hoo! Fantastic way to celebrate or not for everyone, join the fun and find out!

Everyone is ready for a great party, music, drinking, and lots of scares. No one expected it to turn into a bloody bash!

Please do not go deep into the woods on Halloween Night! You may not make it out alive!

Monsters galore, haunted houses and carnival rides, bloody nights, spooky tricks, and treats. Settle in and find the delights within Mischief Night Massacre: Ten Tales of Halloween! 

Leave the lights on!!

"Some horrors stay with you forever."

About the author

In his head, Jason Parent lives in many places, but in the real world, he calls New England his home. The region offers an abundance of settings for his writing and many wonderful places in which to write them. He currently resides in Rhode Island.

In a prior life, Jason spent most of his time in front of a judge . . . as a civil litigator. When he wanted a change, he traded in his cheap suits for flip flops and designer stubble. The flops got repossessed the next day, and he's back in the legal field . . . sorta. But that's another story.

When he's not working, Jason likes to kayak, catch a movie, and travel any place that will let him enter. And read and write, of course--he does that too sometimes.
