Corpus Macabre

By Steve McElhenny

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, boys and ghouls, the living and the dead alike.
You are welcome, one and all, into my Mausoleum of the Macabre.
From my vault of horrors comes a carefully curated collection of seven twisted tales, garnished with sly wit.

The Chamber - Two army instructors' dastardly plot to get their worst recruit discharged.

Human Statues - A farcical feud between two rival street entertainers that escalates to an unhealthy level.

The Old Lady in the Window - A boy's search for his missing pet leads him to the house of an old lady who isn't all that she seems.

The Headphones - A sullen soul who has never known happiness finds a whole new level of misery when he tries on a mysterious pair of headphones.

The Joke - A stand-up comedian refuses to tell a joke handed to him by the venue's management. But who will have the last laugh?

Mockingbird - A family move into their dream home in a secluded village, yet they aren't the only residents within the house.

The Girl with a Porcelain Face - A vengeful spirit is seeking her penance for a decades-old crime. Will the sins of the father be passed on to his son?
