Then one terrifying night of horror proved what Chase had felt all along . . . Crow Tillman was pure evil.

Near-naked, flagrantly male, the Minotaur loomed out of the dark places of Greek mythology. Roaring, bull-headed, the creature advanced. The razor-sharp Cretan axe swung murderously, slicing through the air, through flesh, through bone. One by one its enemies died. Out of the past too came the plague – long-dormant seeds awakening to destroy. The victims would be legion, their deaths horrible. Yet behind the killing lay a plan, a purpose. A malign twentieth-century intelligence was calling up this hideous visitation.

The second collection from the master of contemporary psychological horror, John Farris. Contains four previously unpublished stories. Original.
A southern TV repairman with a seventeen-year-old daughter turns out to be a creature who achieves immortality by sacrificing a virgin every nineteen years.
As a child in 1906, Arne Horsfall finds a sealed crate, addressed to a professor at a local college, that has fallen off a train. His father stores the object in the barn until the wayward professor can pick it up. But the crate operates like a Pandora's box on Arne and his mother; overcome with curiosity, they pry it open and unleash an evil spirit. Physically, the spirit looks like a mummified dark-skinned man--not, however, like a black man—and his mother recognizes it from the stories of her childhood as one of the huldufolk , the "unwashed children of Cain," evil and immortal. When the spirit awakens and escapes, Arne's life is changed forever. He senses them…waiting in the shadows. In the frozen pit of blackest hell, Death sleeps. Ravishing beyond words, evil beyond our darkest dreams of Satan, Her eyelids flutter. Rising from Her pit, She wakes her vampire brood—and frees them from their ancient graves. No, no one is safe, no one—from the unwashed Children of Eve.
Eden Waring is an Avatar, possessing astounding psychic abilities . . . and destined to fight an ancient evil. Her battles against Mordaunt, the ageless Dark Side of God, have been many, but the war is far from over. She destroyed Mordaunt's human body in the deserts of Las Vegas, but his many followers still walk the Earth. They vow to resurrect their Master and exact vengeance upon Eden in a melee of magic and violence. As Eden fights for her life, her doppelganger, Gwen, separates from Eden to fight the battle on another front. In another dimension, the other half of Mordaunt's soul hides within a man living in Jubilation County, Georgia – in the year 1926. To keep Mordaunt powerless, Gwen must travel back in time, but finds that awaiting her arrival is a vicious entity known as Delilah. The epic story that began with The Fury reaches its electrifying conclusion, as unsuspecting worlds merge on the cusp of an age of darkness--a force only one woman, across a vast span of time and space, can stop.

But now that the lights have gone out, Petra, on her own at the top of the semi-derelict office building, is too frightened to go and look for her. In the dark lift, Shannon is alone with nothing but her pad and pencils, her horrifying fogged memories and the voice which persuades her to draw, to bring back to life, the stranger from years before. Every memory of her childhood leads to the Axeman. The night she cowered in her bed, waiting for death, while all her family were savagely murdered, has never been exorcised. Now, the all-too-familiar voice urges, now is the time to release herself from trauma. Recreate the Axeman and finish the business of that night.
