Once every 10,000 years comes the Sha’Daa, two days when evil crosses the dimensional barriers and attacks the Earth. Sha’Daa: Tales of the Apocalypse is a collection of frightening tales that run the gamut from soul-shaking horror, to wry and ironic takes on the end of reality as we know it. Unlikely heroes in unusual locations around the globe battle not only for their own survival, but for all of humanity.

Over a century ago, evil crossed the barriers of reality and entered our world. Dispersing itself across the Earth among an eclectic array of jewelry and microcircuits, this darkness has interacted with much of the most heinous and atrocious acts committed on our planet to date. But now, after decades of secrecy, the truth of this covert and eldritch intrusion has now been exposed to the light of day. In an epic spanning oceans, continents, and dimensions, the personal accounts of those who have come face to face with the unimaginable are now released for your listening pleasure.

Once every 10,000 years, the walls between worlds grow thin. The stars align, and Hell is close. It is the time of the Sha'Daa. The hordes of Hell are about to ride out upon mankind; the forces of evil are trembling with eagerness at the doors of our dimension. Oh, wait a minute.... Actually, they’re not all eager. Some have become members of the Elks, or are involved with a fun crowd at the local high school (though, granted, they’re drinking the cheerleaders’ blood. Not enough to do any real harm).
