The short horror story "Monsters" by Richard Chizmar, first published in 1998, just happens to have a character named Peyton Manning. It's not the football guy.

Despite no evidence, "Democratic Strategists" believe it to be true. Well if those famously correct super geniuses believe something then it MUST be real.

Always loved this art from the illustrated version. Would make a killer back tattoo, or the line of bodies twisting around an arm.

Got my copy of Don't Play This Game after backing on Kickstarter. Solo RPG, legacy elements, "found footage" inspired, art by @slimyswampghost.bsky.social, Plastiboo and other greats. Really been looking forward to this one!

Thoroughly spooked by the story "Face Down death Volume VIII" by @joshrountree.bsky.social in the FOUND anthology, in which a young man begins to suspect there's a conspiracy behind a videotape series depicting real deaths.

Adding the story to my personal Top 100 list!

"Coppers were always outnumbered, so being a copper only worked when people let it work. If they refocused and realized you were just another standard idiot with a pennyworth of metal for a badge, you could end up as a smear on the pavement.” - Terry Pratchett, Night Watch #booksky

I got someone else's Barnes and Noble order by mistake. I ordered a couple of sci-fi and horror books. Not...this. 💙📚 #BookSky
