Horror Fiction Monsters

A newlywed Mormon thinks a honeymoon in the Amazon jungle of Brazil where he served his mission is a great idea, since he's been there and speaks the language.

This short story first appeared in the 2011 collection Monsters & Mormons, edited by Wm Henry Morris and Theric Jepson.

A voodoo swamp creature battles for his way of life. An explorer battles for the swamp creature's treasure.

Gerald Parsons is on his way up. He's a talented executive in line for a major promotion and married to a beautiful woman.

After a coworker is killed and another has his career sabotaged, the stranger shows up at his home, ready to party with his own special news, leaving Gerald to ponder if he is next.
