2 Darkfaery Subculture Ma

Since our first inception in

1985 we have travelled a long

and winding road of various

coteries and shadowy visions.

From the lowest stygian abyss

to the tallest superstructures

of dark fantasy, its been a

long haul fraught with periland rejection.

Yet we stayed the course, sift-

ing through trends and the

mainstream looking for the

unknown, the unwanted, and

the unheard.

We found you in a riverbed.

A floater.

A murky ballerina.

A hanging garden of rust.

We found you wanted more.

And even less. So we divided

into two.

One for us. One for you.

The work is more serious now;

weve separated into the light

and back into the dark. The

light floated away while our

dark side quarreled for being,

its breath almost choked low,

but in the end it survived, a

contiguous thing waiting to be

released from our hearts.

We stood on shaking legs and

lifted our eyes to the moon as

blood reigned from our fin-

gers.

Were back from the dead.And were fucking pissed.

WHAT INSPIRES ME TO WRITE HORROR

What inspires me to write horror? Why do I write at all?

I started scribbling down stories on notebook paper

when I was about thirteen years old. It was during the

decade of the 1960s and I was a skinny kid whose imagination

was being fueled by late night black-and-white horror movies and

the voracious reading of science fiction and fantasy. After I grew

older, I kept returning to writing thanks to the internet. Ive al-

ways wanted to write horror and bring into the light those

creepy things that live under the bed or in the shadowed cornersof the mind. Hopefully, Ive done so with my trilogy of terror: Un-

dead Flesh, Ebon Moon, and 13 Nightmares."

WRAPPED IN REDThirteen Tales of Vampiric HorrorEdited by Jennifer L. GreeneSekhmet Press, 2013Review by

Sara Young

Every horrorjunkie needs a

good anthology

around. Small

doses spreadthroughout the

day keep the

blood levels up.Spare time can

be filled with a

little nibble. Adark tale as the

lights go out

brings the shad-ow on the wall to

life and makes

daylight a little sweeter. The right collection of

stories to be devoured in a sitting keeps the fanengaged, thoughtful, in suspense, or full of

adrenaline for as long as the reader draws it out.

Wrapped In Red is that collection. Smart,stimulating and wide-ranging, its not anothergroup of ho-hum bloodsucker tales. Thirteen

different writing styles bring as many varietiesof the undead to life. Besides having at least one

horrifying beastie to suit any vampire fan, the

book touches the spectrum of genres, settingsand themes. From romance to western, comedy

to sci-fi, vampires are taking over the shelves.

Theyre invading the gates of Hell, bodies of

water, Appalachia and suburbia. They couldshow up anywhere, for anyone, any time at all.The refreshingly unexpected is what made it so

much fun to turn each page.

Anyone who likes to put down a story onlyto have it creep up on them later, laugh aloud, or

look at familiar things in a new light will get a

thrill from Wrapped In Red, and it is a mustread for children of the night everywhere.

A Dark World of Spirits and FeyEdited by Alan RussoZombie Works Publications 2013Review by Sara YoungADark World of Spirits and Feywas born ofsocial media and ingenuity. Posts and responses o

Alan Russos Facebook page guided him to the su

ject matter, title and content of his latest Zombie

Works anthology. Collections about ghosts,ghoulies and every manner of scary monster are

easy to come by; stories about the dark side of spi

itual beings and fairie folk, not so much. The book

grabs the eye from the beginning for this reasonalone.

A

refreshing variety of fright is always nice.Many of the stories are intelligent and thought-

provoking while still fun to read. Every tale has a

such a different personality, subject matter and tonit feels like a giant family reunion: thirteen brothe

and sisters with their own lives, spread across the

nation yet united by family ties. This family reun-

ion, with no bickeing or drama, is fa

tastic. Readers

might want to loofor a little extra lig

to brighten the cor

ners when they wa

away, though.

Perhaps it was by-product of e-book formatting, b

there were a few

rough patches that

were mildly dis-tracting. Beyond

that,A Dark Worl

of Spirits and Feywithout doubt an

ethereal journey

worth taking.
