About this listen
It’s all fun and games until evil comes knocking at your door.
Halloween. The season many wait for all year. A time when people can be anything they want to be. A time of costumes and candy, spooks and frights. Or it can be a time of terror and carnage, where those with sinister intent hide behind the guise of innocence. Where malevolent souls hunt their prey. A night where the only thing that matters is trying to survive.
Call it what you will: All Hallows Eve, Halloween, or All Saints Eve, but if evil comes looking for you, there’s nowhere to hide. Don’t fool yourself into thinking everything will be okay… The only thing you will ever be is dead or dying. Join us for tales of Halloween Horror in this volume of If I Die Before I Wake, but bring your body bags—no one gets out alive.

Story
Gather round as today’s most diabolically clever authors twist simple moments into otherworldly horrors. An empty baby stroller. A scratching underneath the bed. A farmhouse in the moonlight.

Story
They stalk their prey from deep in the menacing shadows, poised and ready to strike at the penultimate moment. Their victims unexpectant, unaware, until they wake in dark rooms, dank basements, or on chilly floors stained with the rotting blood of other hapless victims. The stench fills their nostrils and permeates their pores, the bile rising up in their burning throats. They scream and try to escape, but all attempts are futile. Fear dances like spiders down their spines as they hear ominous footsteps approaching - their eyes spread wide in horror as they realize the end is near.
