Featuring short stories seen in publications from the likes of Flame Tree Press, ID Press, and Horror Tree, plus six brand new tales. "Stormy nights, abandoned places, shadows along the wall. These stories captured the classic feel of Gothic tales told by the fire many years ago." Marianne Halbert, author of Cold Comforts "This book revived my love of short stories. The stories are all great, some of them read almost as poetry. The metaphors that are used and the writing is wonderful. I was scared, uncomfortable and smiling all at the same time. 5 Yellow Pills in a Tiny Paper Cup out of 5." - Youtube reviewer, Steve Talks About Books & Stuff "After reading this collection, I stare forlornly out my window, grasping my lace coverlet to my throat while storm clouds build outside...where opium was still a valid treatment plan and the ghosts are ever so friendly... Perfect Gothic horror." Reviewer, Sarah Duck-Mayr Visit www.authorhbdiaz.com for new release announcements, free reads, and more.

Eventually the past must give up its dead.¿¿When William Garrett's estranged father dies under mysterious circumstances-and makes a heinous accusation against him-Will must journey to a place that has haunted him since childhood, a place he vowed never to return: Ravenswood Hall. But memories of the past are the least of Will's troubles. Stories of murder and witchcraft hinder Will's efforts to settle the estate and clear his name, and at the heart of it all is a Spanish painter named Lenora Laveau. Now a fixture of the crumbling hall, she claims to have witnessed Will's father's leap from the widow's walk in the throes of lunacy. Rumors in town tell a darker tale, though-that she drove him to it. As Will falls under Lenora's spell and tragedy strikes those nearest to Ravenswood Hall, he becomes plagued by disembodied voices and visions of the dead. After encountering a spirit who bears an uncanny resemblance to Lenora, Will questions his sanity, believing that not even the talents of his beloved daughter Lottie, a spiritualist, can save him from following in his father's footsteps. But when Lottie attempts to communicate with the dead, Will must stave off the past-and Lenora's charms-or he'll risk losing his daughter and his mind.
