In this, the second compilation of short horror and dark romance stories are encountered anything from ghostly visitations of departed lovers, to festering madness unnoticed in busy worlds, with much more in-between, each story building slowly to an often surprising climax, taking the unsuspecting reader to unexpected conclusions. Linked unusually through the first 15 Tales by the fictitious Cafe Romana coffee bar, we ease out of this compilation with 6 other stories which will serve to entertain, yet are also designed to shock. In here will be found various kinds of people, the bullies, the cowards, the vain, the selfish, the hopeful, the caring, the brave and the selfless, positive and negative, yin and yang.These are not just horror and dark romance tales, though, as the people dealt with inside these pages are motivated in their different ways, showing their strengths and weaknesses in how they interact with one another, whether they be cruel or kind, ignoble or honourable, repellent or laudable. In this collection are showcased the disparate inhabitants of the Human Zoo, the myriad situations they find themselves in bringing out the best or worst in them, according to the twists and turns of solo or shared experiences.So, as you enter the shadowy fictional worlds of ’EERIE ECHOES and MIDNIGHT MENACE’, be prepared to look into the dark mirror and perhaps see someone you know or even yourself, and to question which category it is right for a person to fall into. Being a part of the interactive Human Zoo is being a part of the adventure, why we live, in the first place, stand or fail, and surely we know the clock of Life and Death ticks inexorably, for everyone. The ultimate question has to be, how do we possibly conduct ourselves?
