Step one: Perfect the smile. Step two: Master the routine. Step three: Never let them see what's underneath.

Through this series of haunting tales, Gerden Ibrahim guides us into a realm where beautiful surfaces hide monstrous depths.

I was the star of Dr. Warly's adventure club: a children's show that doesn't exist.

My sister disappeared five years ago, but last night she knocked on our door.

Never leave a chair empty in your bedroom at night. You don't want to know who might take a seat while you sleep.

I just got a job at a lamp store. Turns out we don't actually sell lamps...

When our town smells like cinnamon, you know someone just died.

These stories and others chronicle terrifying impostors in the home, copies in the neighborhood, and the chilling performance of being human.

October Shadows: Classic Ghost Stories for Halloween (Deluxe Illustrated Horror Anthology)
<p>In <em>October Shadows</em>, artist John A. Rice brings to life classic ghost stories, using autumn leaves as his canvas. Each of the thirteen tales--by authors including Washington Irving, Edgar Allan Poe, and Edith Nesbit--explores the unexplained and the macabre, tapping into our worst fears and the darker side of human nature while exploring the supernatural mysteries that connect all our lives. This is the perfect book for curling up in front of a fire on a chilly night, when the moon is high, the wind whispers in the trees, and ominous shadows lurk around every corner.<br /></p><p>Every story in <em>October Shadows</em> is illustrated with an original artwork executed on an autumn leaf. Each artwork is shown twice: once at the beginning of the story, and once at the end, transformed--like the face of a jack-o'-lantern--by backlighting, the light bleeding through the leaf and transforming the colors to an eerie and haunting effect.<br /></p><p>Like a relic from another era, <em>October Shadows</em> features a deluxe binding in real cloth, with foil stamping and a tip-on. By breathing new life into timeless stories and reimagining them with Rice's unique approach, this anthology is poised to become an essential autumn classic--a book for Halloween and for cozy, spooky reading all year round. </p><br />
