About this ebook

Screams echo through the thick darkness of night in this collection of three short horror tales from the dark mind of Mark Leslie.

Taste of Darkness: Sensory deprivation takes on a new meaning when you let the darkness completely consume your senses of sight, sound, touch and smell, leaving you with the bitter taste of the encroaching darkness. And you'll be surprised what you find lurking there just beneath the surface and the cold, clear light of day.

The Pizza Man: A group of students keep getting pizza deliveries that they never ordered. Is it a strange prank, or is there something more to the mysterious stranger who keeps showing up at their door?

Little Things: Strange little creatures appear in the middle of the night, but Daniel is the only one who can see them. His wife, Joy, becomes distraught at the bizarre way her husband is acting, but, more horrifying is what the tiny little things are doing to her.

If you're looking for three quick jaunts into worlds where darkness mingles with the echoes of cries in the night, you'll want to crack open the pages and start listening for the nocturnal screams. The stories and accompanying "behind the screams" notes from the author come to approximately 15,700 words.

It takes talent to write short stories. I was impressed with the plots and complexity of the characters. even though I'm partial to cheese and mushroom pizza, I still give it five stars! ;-)

I love short stories. Pizza man has all the workings of an urban legend. I can see people telling this one for years to come. I know I will to freak poeple out. LOL. Great job.
