Skeletons Await ...
Bones jangling as they grinningly emerge.
Meet a hungry old woman who roasts her victims; a grieving man intent on vengeful rape and murder; a nurse who buys geckos to kill her lover; a wife-battering husband who encounters a blood-sucking vampire; a diva-wannabe who must poison her friends; an exorcism gone horribly wrong; a teenager fatally obsessed with his beach-discovered skull; and many more!
These and other skeletons await your pleasure. Nightmarish, spine-chilling tales ready to embrace and draw you into their deepest dungeons.

About the Author
Tunku Halim is a Malaysian novelist, short story, non-fiction writer and lawyer. His novel Vermillion Eye was a study text at the National University of Singapore. By delving into Malay myth, legends and folklore, his writing is regarded as 'World Gothic'. His novel, Last Breath, is seen as taking a step away from the genre into 'a mixture of character drama, satire, alternate history, and magic realism'.
