Prison riots of unprecedented brutality. Mind-boggling acts of violence in every state. They’re reading the names of those to be killed on the Emergency Broadcast System. You are listening over the battery-powered radio on your kitchen table, and they’ve just read yours. People are coming to your house to kill you and your family. You don’t know why, but you don’t have time to think about that any more. You only have time to….RUN

Book Review: Helter Skelter by Bryan Cassiday

Book Review: Helter Skelter by Bryan Cassiday

My Rating: ★★☆☆☆

Evildoers run riot across the sun-drenched Southern California landscape in Helter Skelter. Zombies, vampires, and other wicked creatures wreak mayhem and carnage in these shocking horror short stories by Bryan Cassiday. Not all of these tales feature supernatural creatures. Some of the evil creatures are human–perhaps the most terrifying creature of all. These stories defy logic, yet they obey their own inexorable logic of fear.

Four young people are traveling in search of a place to ride out the virus that has taken over the world. They have three rules they live by; 1. Avoid the infected at all costs. Their breath is highly contagious. 2. Disinfect anything they’ve touched in the last 24 hours. 3. The sick are already dead. They can’t be saved. You break the rules, you die. You follow them, you live.
