Welcome to The Dark Library. Where floorboards creak, and rats scuttle in the darkness. Where candles flicker, and shelves groan under the weight of so many books. Stories of the malevolent and the macabre. This collection of fourteen strange tales, feature demonic forces, body horror, madness, cruelty, suffering, and a rogue's gallery of ghosts and ghouls, monsters, and murderers. A whole new nightmare is never more than a few pages away. DEMONICUS - A tormented priest is kidnapped and forced at gunpoint to perform an exorcism. PLAYGOD.COM - A hacker stumbles on a hi-tech snuff site. With the clock ticking, and a global audience of sadists watching, only he has the power to save, or to kill. THIS CURSED LAND - A traveller finds himself lost, alone and hunted in a war-torn land. But something inhuman stalks the night. THE GLADSTONE BAG - A fledgling killer is at large on the streets of Whitechapel, ably assisted by the ghost of Jack the Ripper. THE GENTLEMAN THIEF - A geriatric cat-burglar must steal a priceless work of art. The painting is said to be cursed and must never be seen by human eyes. The merest glimpse will lead, inevitably, to death. KNUCKLEBONES - On a remote farm, a woman gives birth to something unholy. Her husband thinks he has disposed of the abomination, but he's wrong. So very wrong. And more unspeakable evil. You have been warned.
