The unspoken horror and pure evil that surrounds such creatures as ghouls, werewolves and other shapeshifters, like were-tigers and were-hyenas, lurk in the darkest canyons of our primeval instincts.
Yet, it is astonishing that in our present age of serial killers, murderous savagery and rampant terrorism that tales of these foul creatures are discounted and disbelieved -- even laughed at.
I am not laughing.
The documented cases from various credible sources you’ll find in this 99-page, finely-illustrated volume, published exclusively for Kindle, will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up.
If nothing else, you will get a true sense of the dark side of reality, the evil that lurks sometimes waiting patiently to pounce on the innocent and pure when they least expect it.
While this work is meant to be entertaining, in reality, it is also meant to be sobering. It is my wish that you find it at the very least stimulating and interesting. And, oh yes, horrifying.
