I'm over at my best friend Emily's house and it's snowing outside, so the two of us are cuddled up under a blanket, watching some cheesy lesbian romance movie on a premium cable channel. But as we watch, I begin to have thoughts, feelings about my best friend that have never really surfaced before now. Maybe it's just the proximity, the feeling of her body heat, or maybe it's the fact that I'm feeling a bit neglected by my boyfriend, and am substituting our intimacy for that.

I'm about to attend the sexiest family reunion I've ever been to.... Willie and I...have a bit of a history together....

Now, after all this time, I'm about to see him again. The two of us are planning to meet once more at a family reunion. Will he even be there? This suspense is unbearable....

As the global economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic and debates over the future of work challenge our long-held preconceptions about what careers and the market can be, learning the basics of economics has never been more essential.

This triumphant final volume of Spinechillers begins with Doug Bradley's personal guide to the writers and the history of the stories. M. R. James' classic "Number 13" starts off this volume with a mystery about a disappearing and reappearing hotel room, can you guess the room number? Story two is the tale of a cat that can not only talk, but spills secrets that should have been truly left behind. Next, we present one of the most famous stories by H.P. Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu".

Volume 9 launches with "The Ash Tree", M. R. James' insight into an enigmatic woman and her rituals around this mysterious tree. A condemned man and over zealous executioners generate shocking results, in Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Los Amigos Fiasco". An immoral wager leads to terror when the dead rise in Ambrose Bierce's "A Watcher by the Dead". Lovecraft takes us exploring through a lost world of ancient evil in "The Nameless City".

Lately, I've been so sick of my job that I can hardly stand it! I've been working at the same company for years now, and no matter how hard I work and break my back for those people, nothing I do, seems to get recognized. Presently, I'm on a business trip, nervous about an upcoming presentation I'm supposed to be giving, and angry, that my flight has been delayed indefinitely due to inclement weather.

Just when I think I've sworn off men for good, I find myself abducted and probed so thoroughly that I might never come back from it....

In this work, set in 17th century France, we follow the adventures of young Louis, heir to the Count of Bigorre, after an encounter with the vindictive Marquis de Saint Brie forces him into exile. The tale wends its way inexorably towards the Battle of Marfee in the 30 years War and the death of the Count of Soissons in a failed coup against the much hated minister, Cardinal de Richelieu. Young love, a brush with the law, card sharks, a deadly avalanche - life is definitely interesting for the young adventurer.
