Dark Crux: The Second Tome is the second in a series of horror and paranormal short stories that will shock, frighten, and horrify you!

This second book has six short stories that involve voodoo, paranormal powers, a monster hunter, a demon, ghosts, and well, let's just say you've never met anyone quite like Aileen.

Hell on Earth - Evil comes in many forms. Rarely is it a physical, real thing. Unless Satan sends one of his demons on a special task. This one wants to meet a pretty waitress in a quaint restaurant in the city. What his plans are, and how he completes them, will make all the difference. All the difference in the world. Satan does not take failure well.

Empowerment - Everyone goes through changes in their teen years. Jimmy Faegan had expected that. He hadn't expected to gain an ability to move objects. Or to control people with a word. Now, he can do anything he wants. And what he wants, is to get revenge on the bullies that have tormented him all his life. What he wants, is to get the girl who won't give him the time of day. What he wants, is for his mother to stop meddling in his life. Even if he has to force them to do what he wants. As his powers grow, he finds there is at least one other person who has the same powers he does. They just don't see eye to eye on how to use their abilities. But Jimmy won't go back to being what he was. Back to being a wuss. B ack to being the one who always gets picked on. He has the power now. And he's going to use it.

The Vapors - Nick is a reporter on the homicide desk. When five people die mysteriously all with a four block radius of a local cemetary, he becomes obsessed with finding the serial killer who he thinks is responsible. What he finds out will scare him out of his skin.

The Exterminator - Clinton Rawson works for the most secret of government agencies doing work that no one knowss about. He is a clean-up man, an exterminator, for a group of experiments gone wrong, creatures that threaten the lives of everyone in the Untied States if not stopped. When he gets bitten by one of the things he has tracked down, he runs the risk of infection. Infection from these things can mean death, or it can mean mutation into the very thing he's trying to eradicate. That's happened before, to a woman he loved. A woman he thought he'd never see again. Until she tries to kill him.

The Power of Voodoo - New Orleans beat cop Bryson Raime has seen a lot in his time as an officer for the City. But he's about to become involved in a murder investigation with a suspect who is more than she appears. She is the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans, and she says she knows who the real killer is. Bryson becomes more and more involved with this woman, and as he does, he starts to see things that might just make him believe her, even as the evidence against her mounts.

Daddy's Little Monstrosity - Aileen lives a life of seclusion and obscurity with her talking cat Mr. Pebbles and a room full of dead animals. If it wasn't for a head the size of three footballs, she might have experienced more in life. But for now she's stuck in her room while her father Jed moves to DC to become the President.

So snuggle up with your copy, get cozy, and be sure to leave the lights on as you read through all six stories of horror, the paranormal and things quite bizarre.
