En savoir plus sur le livre
Norman Partridge's Halloween novel, Dark Harvest, was recognized as one of Publishers Weekly's 100 Best Books of 2006 and won a Bram Stoker Award. Partridge's unique creation, the October Boy, has drawn comparisons to Stephen King and Ray Bradbury. In this new collection, he presents six stories that celebrate Halloween's frights. "The Jack o' Lantern," a new novelette, features the October Boy facing a deadly doppelganger during the town's ritual of death and rebirth. "Johnny Halloween" tells of a sheriff confronting a ghost and his own haunted past. In "Three Doors," a war hero uses a magic prosthetic hand to confront his history, while "Satan's Army" is a rare story previously available only in a limited edition. Additionally, "The Man Who Killed Halloween" is an essay reflecting on growing up in the late sixties in a town that was home to the Zodiac Killer. Partridge examines how this experience shaped him as a writer. Join him on seven journeys through Halloween night, where danger lurks around every corner. With a masterful blend of horror and nostalgia, Partridge explores the thin line between human evil and the supernatural, inviting readers to confront their fears in a celebration of the most perilous night of the year.
