The Shadows Behind 💀 scary.co

In the shadows, monsters lurk. In this disturbing new collection from award-winning short story author Kristi Petersen Schoonover, a hungry volcano demands more and a talking piranha predicts the future. A plastic Easter bunny taunts a struggling husband, ancient Egyptian jars tempt a former convict, and a man-eating tree mocks a bereft mother. Kudzu devours a sleeping town, and seagull bones whisper long-buried secrets. These monsters are simply stand-ins for those we face every day: shape-shifting grief and overwhelming terror; soul-consuming love and all-possessing fear. We can rail against them or embrace them, but they are always there. Waiting, and unconquerable. "Kristi Petersen Schoonover does it again with this original collection of observant and haunting stories that will leave readers turning pages long into the night as they tell themselves: Just one more story . . . just one more . . ." ~ Lauren Baratz-Logsted, author of Zombie Abbey "Deliciously scary." ~ Stacy Horn, author of Damnation Island and Imperfect Harmony "The Shadows Behind explores the uncanny, strange, and underlying darkness behind white picket fences. The stories . . . are curated as perfectly as a rose garden, only one will need to watch out for the thorns.” —John Palisano, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Ghost Heart
