Beneath the Surface by Tim Deal (Editor) Signed

A 2008 Bram Stoker Award Finalist for "BEST ANTHOLOGY." Shroud Publishing has compiled 13+ of the eeriest and most terrifying works of short fiction into a classically-themed trade paperback titled "Beneath The Surface." "Beneath The Surface" represents the first in a series of limited edition anthologies intended for discerning horror readers. In this collection of stories, readers will be tantalized and thrilled by tales of supernatural beings, Gothic settings, shadowy creatures, and atmospheric haunts. "Beneath The Surface" will serve as the perfect companion to cold nights by the fire or snowed-in days off from work. "An anthology of old school tales containing stories which are, by turns, spooky, gripping, insightful, pulpish, and just downright fun. A first offering from Shroud Publishing that will hopefully be followed by plenty more in the same vein." --Tom Piccirilli, author of THE COLD SPOT and THE MIDNIGHT ROAD
