GOTHIC TALES contains an assortment of Narrative Poems that flow like the storybook from hell. The poems are literary, sophisticated, forthright and gruesomely picturesque at times. The book is divided into five parts; the first section contains vampire poems that are gory yet evocative, with darkly romantic blood drinking, and tongue and cheek scenarios. Part Two is comprised of Halloween horror with the wiles of witches and the haunting of ghosts, who steal our dreams and waking hours. Part Three is hauntingly gruesome, involving thought provoking scenarios straight from the underworld. Part Four contains sagas involving death and threat. Part Five showcases an ensemble of graveside scenarios and the eeriness of reality. GOTHIC TALES is for lovers of the macabre and unexpected with an ironic twist to incite and inspire.
