Earlier this year, Mark Parker, publisher at Scarlet Galleon Publications<\/a>, kindly asked me to send him a story to consider for his Dark Hallows II anthology, a follow-up collection of dark Halloween stories to last year’s Dark Hallows. After mulling it over for a few days, I sent Mark a quick pitch for a story about sex, betrayal, and horror inspired in part by the classic E.C. Comics horror stories and then set out to write it, finding in it some grim and twisted turns I hadn’t even anticipated. It’s a trip into a weird, Halloween-inflected world, a\u00a0story about a love triangle, about ritual and riches, love and\u00a0betrayal, the conflict between rich and poor, and the sacrifices people make (or force others to) to preserve their way of life. It’s called\u00a0“The Many Hands Inside in the Mountain,” and\u00a0you can read it in Dark Hallows II, along with tales from Lisa Morton, Richard Chizmar, Ronald Malfi, Annie Neugebauer, Brian Moreland, and many other terrific writers.\u00a0Now on sale at Amazon.com.<\/a><\/p>\n
