Attic Clowns: Complete Collection - Jeremy C. Shipp
Amazon US----Amazon UK

Jeremy C. Shipp is the Bram Stoker Award-nominated author of Cursed, Vacation, and Sheep and Wolves. His shorter tales have appeared or are forthcoming in over 60 publications, the likes of Cemetery Dance, ChiZine, Apex Magazine, Withersin, and Shroud Magazine.

**This collection contains every story from Attic Clowns Volume 1, Volume 2, Volume 3 and Volume 4.**

Bram Stoker Award nominee Jeremy C. Shipp spins 13 tales of horror and dark humor in this highly conceptual collection. Angels and demons, husbands and wives, tormented ghosts and an army of men made of soap--all of them trapped in attics of the mind, attics of heaven or hell, the attics we make for ourselves or with which we ensnare others.

Meet a paranoid astronaut whose jealousy drives him to extremes beyond murder...a miniature circus spawned from the mind of a woman with too much control...the underling demon Globcow who desires redemption even more than the taste of human feet...

Men, women, children, and things beyond imagination all interconnect in ATTIC CLOWNS, where laughter is only the prelude to the bizarre and terrible.

The stories include:
Spider Clowns from Planet X
Microcircus
Princess
Dust Bunnies
Don’t Laugh
Blister
A Quivering Gray Fog
The Ascension of Globcow the Foot Eater
Little Mouse
Soapmen
The Glass Box
The Hobo
Giggles

“Jeremy C. Shipp’s boldness, daring, originality, and sheer smarts make him one of the most vital younger writers who have colonized horror literature in the past decade. Shipp’s modernist clarity, plus his willingness to risk damn near everything, put him up at the head of the pack with the very best.”
–Peter Straub, author of Ghost Story

"Shipp's clear, insistent voice pulls you down into the rabbit hole and doesn't let go."
--Jack Ketchum, author of The Girl Next Door

[Dr. Drib]

Got it.

Thank you.

[Marrella]

Looks great, thanks.

[Prestidigitweeze]

It's odd to be discussing "bargain horror," isn't it? What's next -- fabulous deals on nausea and repulsion? A defenestration discount on vertigo?

[Prestidigitweeze]

Of course, the other thing this thread could be about is the Fear of Bargains.

[Katsunami]

Thanks

For a moment, I thought your sig was the story!

Marc Brent is horrendously ripped apart on a recent trip to Italy when he encounters a hoard of traveling Rootabaggers. Rootabaggers are creatures that resemble 1950s luggage with oversize handles. These creatures collect body parts from their victims and are then somehow able to pass inspection when they board as luggage on air flights. This novel is full of constipated moments of never-ending terror as the world confronts the necessity of travelling with too many suitcases.

Oh....£1.87 for me.

[BetterRead]

Dark Hollow by Brian Keene is $0.99 at AmazonUS.

Something very strange is happening in LeHorn's Hollow...

Eerie, piping music is heard late at night, and mysterious fires have been spotted deep in the woods. Women are vanishing without a trace overnight, leaving behind husbands and families.

When up-and-coming novelist Adam Senft stumbles upon an unearthly scene, it plunges him and the entire town into an ancient nightmare. Folks say the woods in LeHorn's Hollow are haunted, but what waits there is far worse than any ghost. It has been summoned...and now it demands to be satisfied.

[Katsunami]

Looks good... good reviews also I think I'll grab this as an in-between read

I'll get it because it takes place in a town based on a town I often drive through after shopping at the used bookstore I love. (I think I already have the paperback, but the print on those things was awful.)

It's free as part of the Kindle matchbook if you bought the paperback from Amazon.
