The Eurohorror movement of the mid-to-late 20th century produced a stunning array of nightmarish, surreal, and memorable horror films. Spooky castles, rivers of blood, madmen in torture chambers, lavish color and light, sensual acts of violence, unstoppable armies of saucy vampires and plaster-faced undead-these are the markers of the dreamlike European contributions to grindhouse horror cinema.In Euroschlock Nightmares, contemporary North American horror writers pay tribute to the films of this fever-dream past. Dario Argento, Mario and Lamberto Bava, Jess Franco, Lucio Fulci, Paul Naschy, Amando de Ossorio, Jean Rollin, Michele Soavi, and more inform and inspire these visionaries to new heights of absurd violence, erotic subtext, spooky atmosphere, and drive-in depravity.Including tales of occult terror, sexy bloodsuckers, undead ghouls, fog-shrouded houses of despair, and more, Euroschlock Nightmares delivers a journey into the beating, bloodied heart of lurid continental horror.FEATURING: An introduction to "Euroschlock" by Brian O'Connell and cover art by Trevor Henderson, with new and original horror fiction by: Patrick Lacey, Matthew M. Bartlett, doungjai gam, Mer Whinery, Gwendolyn Kiste, Sam Richard, Thomas Breen, Orrin Grey, Christa Carmen, Sean Malia Thompson, and Tiffany Morris. Edited by Jonathan Raab.

When the arrest of known moonshiner (and possible alien abductee) Larry "Bucky" Green goes south, several cops are left dead and Bucky goes on the run. His latest batch of moonshine is driving the locals mad-literally. Anyone who drinks it falls victim to some terrible form of mind control. They start tearing each other apart and building strange altars to forgotten gods. Strange lights in the sky, mob violence, militarized police, creatures from beyond time and space, and sinister government agencies descend on the idyllic autumn countryside, sowing chaos and terror in their wake. Only the paranoid Sheriff Cecil Kotto-who also happens to be the host of a popular conspiracy theory radio show-has any clue about the truth behind it all. He recruits a new deputy and joins forces with an ambitious public access television reporter to track down Bucky and stop the apocalypse from kicking off. Who's behind the evil of the age? FEMA? The Illuminati? Reptilians? Aliens? The Red Cross? Secret societies? The DHS? The CIA? The EPA? The Council on Foreign Relations? The Trilateral Commission? Only Sheriff Kotto and his team can find out. Only they can stop...The Hillbilly Moonshine Massacre "A rollicking, helluva good ride! Soaked in unashamed craziness, bathed in cursed hooch and all things secret and wrong. Terrifying, funny, and whip smart. Keep your eye on Raab. His arrival draws near. Sheriff Cecil Kotto is a hero for the ages."- Mer Whinery, author of The Little Dixie Horror Show and Phantasmagoria Blues "With Xacto-sharp prose, more than a few helpings of dry wit, and a keen eye for Weird Madness, Jonathan Raab has concocted a conspiracy-rich tale that builds to a booming crescendo. Unpredictable, compulsively readable, and crackling with deranged energy, The Hillbilly Moonshine Massacre is the work of an electric imagination." - Matthew M. Bartlett, author of Gateways to Abomination and The Witch-Cult in Western Massachusetts

Where is the real Leeds? How does one get there? Is it floating on the air-words and music you can almost reach out and grab like wriggling worms of sound and ether? Is it in the carnival that seethes under the corrupted church, drawing the lost along shadowy corridors and through the strangely angled Funhouse doors to the place where the city fathers perform secret rites with the goat-headed masters of the dark? Do you seek the Real Leeds? Venture out to a secluded spot, turn on your radio, and spin that dial down to the murky low numbers, somewhere just around 87.9... That music, that voice calling on the edge of static and distortion-it might lead you to that blasted and damned path toward the Real and Truest heart of Leeds, Massachusetts. This is WXXT. It's the witching hour, when shadows take wing and nightmares stalk. Turn your radio up. Point your antennas to the infinite sky. And stay tuned for Weather on the Sixes. WXXT. The bubbling blisters on the tongue of the Pioneer Valley.

New Camlough Studios is making a horror movie about bloodsucking freaks, one harkening back to the Gothic horror classics of old. When a down-on-his-luck defense contractor accepts a position as the production's head of security, he discovers that the on-camera terrors are nothing compared to the real thing. Something blood-hungry haunts the forest... Something the producers may have known about from the start. What follows is a hallucinogenic descent into the fog-shrouded, blood-soaked, fang-punctured world of cinema-as-sorcery, archetypal horrors, and subliminal systems of control.
