The Wooden Hills

The stories collected herein are not for the faint-hearted. Nineteen dark tales from the imagination of Andy Evans: "[some] are short, sharp jabs to the psyche, others are longer spirals of nightmarish descent". - WENDY KING Each story is unsettling. Nothing here is quite as it would seem. Some being so terrifying as to frequent your dreams and leave you floundering, longing for the relative sanctuary of the daylight hours. In 'Gravity' a man walks along the highway, compelled towards a specific place, haunted by his past and a growing sense of d�j�-vu. 'Evolution of the Werewolf' flips the werewolf myth upon it's head. 'Hiija' is about two rival horror writers and the deadly woman who inspires them both. While 'We Who Dwell Behind The Veil' explores why you should never be mean to your little sister. And there are others waiting in the darkness, too.
