THE SPEED OF DARK - An Anthology Of Horror edited by Clayton Clifford Bye and PDR Lindsay
This Horror anthology offers 27
strangely different and disturbing horror short stories by talented authors
from around the world. One of which is Marion Webb-De Sisto whose story
is entitled INTO THE FOG. When referring to this tale, Marion
warns, "Drive home. Don't take the train."
Nostalgic for the Inquisition and plague, Satan feels neglected by the modern world that no longer cares about heresy or blames him for disease and death. He plans to create a new genesis, a place where people will love him. For that, his son needs just the right soul.
Moving through time from Ireland during the famine year 1848 to Massachusetts, 2028, and a parallel dimension, Satan tries to create a place where people will love him. This requires Katie, age 14, to give her baby's soul to the devil's son.
A Satan Carol is a horror story with a message for those who want to understand God's apparent absence as the intersection of freewill and choice. It is a story with religious themes written for a secular reader. It is, in the end, a tale about family values even if they originate in hell.
