Highbinder 1. One who engages in fraudulent and shady activities; a corrupt or scheming politician.
“Back in my day politicians would at least have the decency to at least attempt to conceal the fact that they were nothing more than vainglorious highbinder and quockerwodgers.”

As a fiction writer, I don’t think it’s fair that songs can end just by fading out. When I have no idea how to end a short story, how come I can’t just be like, and then everything just got very quiet. . .

BLOOD: THE LAST VAMPIRE (2000)

Gritty, visceral, creepy, and compelling #Vampire slayer film, which is far superior to the live action version made years later.

From the bestselling author of the "Vivian Amberville" saga, comes the unnerving horror short-story of a man who gets buried alive over the festering remains of his late wife, Kassandra.

During his premature entombment, forty long nails are struck into Chase Chaperone's casket, plunging him deeper into Hell. This grim ritual is a dark operetta written in rhyming prose - an homage to Dante's Inferno - from which naught but the most vile of souls can escape. The man is subsequently set free from the coffin by the grotesque dwarf Eldritch, who in a fit of revenge, climbs onto his back and refuses to climb down. Chase is thus doomed to carry the parasitic dwarf atop his back for the rest of his days, while searching for absolution.

This Halloween special explores themes such as "death and decay", "justice" and "morality", in a forlorn world set outside the reach of modern civilisation.

Written in the grim and melodious style of Edgar Allan Poe, "Jump into the Abyss!" follows Chase Chaperone's descent into the far-reaching Abyss of his soul in a masterfully-written allegorical tale.

Your purchase will grant you access to the ePub and PDF-formats.

From the bestselling author of the "Vivian Amberville" saga, comes the surreal novella of a man's journey through Limbo.

Freshly arrived at the Totermann Inn, Marc Whitehouse couldn’t have known he was dead. Sir, no sir. Not now that Chantal Dublanc had so mysteriously entered his life; his afterlife. In his quest for the truth behind his early demise, he finds himself on a journey where past memories intermingle with present actions. He is not yet ready to call it a life. 206 heartbeats to peace. The hour is late, but Marc is yet to renounce his hope for salvation...

A surreal novella of love, loss and the afterlife, written in the captivating, dreamlike style of André Breton. “Reprobates” is an exquisitely written narrative of Life after Life, centered on Marc’s journey through Limbo.

Its style is heavy on allegory, at every step teeming with Underworld intrusions of the sacred into the profane.

Your purchase will grant you access to the ePub and PDF-formats.

From the bestselling author of the "Vivian Amberville" series, comes the surreal novella that will have you question the very foundation of your reality.

Under the influence of the powerful new psychedelic drug “Rhapsody”, Mario Fantoccio discovers the existence of an invisible reality overlaying our own.

The rhapsody-altered state of consciousness brings Mario to close encounters with “the Masters of Strings”, a coven of hyperdimensional beings who appear to control the destiny of every human in existence.

Desperate to sever the strings tying him to the will of his Masters, Mario overdoses on Rhapsody and escapes into hell, hoping to regain control of his life and free will.

Based on a modern interpretation of Jungian psychology, The Underworld Rhapsody is heavily themed on "subjective reality", "altered states of consciousness", and "individuation" as it follows one man's struggle to escape the chaos of his life and regain his free will.
