Pieces of terror, pieces of suspense, and pieces of darkness combine to create Pieces of Hate, master storyteller Ray Garton’s short story collection. Nine works, including “A Gift From Above,” a new novel that will surely hit you from below, are here compiled for the sole purpose of scaring you onto the next page. Garton illuminates the dark corners in us all and highlights the depths of the human condition. He takes our ordinary, daily assumptions and turns them on the reader to frightening effect. He makes reading terrifying yet compulsive. He scares us in so many ways. Here are but a few brilliant examples in this one collection: “A Gift From Above,” “Choices,” “Pieces,” “Cat Hater,” “Bad Blood,” “Ophilia Raphaeldo,” “The Devil’s Music,” “Bait,” “God’s Work.”

Previously released as a special limited edition for Cemetery Dance Collectors Club members and long out-of-print, this collection features Ray Garton's most controversial religious horror stories that are sure to get him in trouble with someone. Wailing and Gnashing of Teeth is too over-the-top for a mass market publisher, but now is being made available by Ray for the ebook market. Be warned: This book is not for everyone, particularly the easily offended. This volume will differ slightly from the Cemetery Dance edition in that two different stories are contained within. One of them, "Graven Image" has previously been released as a very limited chapbook from Cemetery Dance in 2007, with a print run of only 457 copies. The stories contained within are: Wailing and Gnashing of Teeth Choices God's Work Graven Image Monsters Sinema Punishments

There he meets the Serpent Girl, a woman who mesmerizes him as no other woman has ... and stirs in him desires that blind his own better judgment. They each have a dangerous secret. Steve decides to take her with him on the road, a decision that binds them and their secrets together in ways neither could ever suspect. They begin an erotic journey that takes them much farther than their physical destination ... a bloody journey that will irrevocably change them both.

Ray Garton exposes himself as a master storyteller in METHODS OF MADNESS, with six stories centered on the psychotic, twisted deviations in human nature. Anchored by the riveting short novel, "Dr. Krusadian's Method," Garton's style is so real, so believable, he could be describing people you encounter every day. The couple upstairs, your neighbors and relatives, maybe even your own husband or wife. What kind of madness is really played out behind their shuttered windows? Also features the stories "Fat," "Active Member," Something Kinky," "Sinema," and "Shock Radio." This is Ray Garton at his terrifying best. "This is the first fiction collection from Garton...his writing is compelling." -- Publishers Weekly "Garton is on his way to becoming a major name in any field he works in." -- Joe R. Lansdale

When he was a boy, Stuart Mullond's mother held him down while his urologist Dr. Ferguson performed a medical procedure on him that was so traumatizing and humiliating that its painful memory stayed with him for decades. For his entire life, his nightmares have been haunted by the snick-snick-snick of the doctor's scissors. Now a divorced, unemployed adult with a troubled teenage son, Stuart is trying to hold his life together...when Dr. Ferguson suddenly shows up again. He's not confined to nightmares anymore. He's very real. And he is determined to perform that same horrible procedure on Stuart's son. But all these years later, Dr. Ferguson looks exactly as he did when Stuart was a boy. And he's kept his scissors nice and sharp ... Snick-snick-snick!

Medical research? Genetic experiments? No one knows exactly what goes on inside the sprawling BioGenTech building on the edge of town. But after an enormous explosion at the facility, people in town start turning up dead ... and in pieces. Something is loose in Hope Valley. Something big ... and fast ... and hungry. It has a lot of legs, a nasty disposition and a big appetite. This is one spider you can't step on.

A "lot lizard" is a female hooker who works a highway truck stop as her territory. When trucker Bill Ketter looks for a little relaxation and release, he discovers, too late, that he has bitten off more than he can chew. In fact, his lot lizard is the one who does the biting-she is a vampire, one of a number who move from one truck stop to the next under the watchful and vicious eyes of the repulsive Carsey Brothers. Against his will, Bill becomes one of the undead. He follows the brothers and their cargo to another stop where he meets his ex-wife and children, and Bill finds himself battling the vampires and their age-old leader for the life of his teenage son. Garton has created another small masterpiece, contemporary adult horror at its most gruesome and loaded with extra doses of sex and gore. The confined setting creates a perfect claustrophobic stage for the story and the hellaciously quick pace never lets the action slow down.

This third book in the King's Way Press Definitive Classics Series features the 1831 edition of the classic Gothic horror novel Frankenstein, an introduction by bestselling author Dean Koontz, an essay by acclaimed author Ray Garton and amazing artwork by award-winning artists Glenn Chadbourne and Alex McVey!
