Horror is pessimism at its bleakest. Worst-case scenario. The
darker side of reality. The glass half-empty. The situation
unfathomable. In Black Bubbles, Kelli Owen presents classic genre
tropes-ghosts, murderers, zombies, what you'd expect (sans
sharks)-but it's the characters, rather than the tropes, that
experience the story, speak of the horrors, and sometimes survive
the inevitable. Sometimes. A decades-old crime shocks a family as
evidence points to one of their own... An ancient evil hitchhikes
its way to freedom... A child has an unusual fascination with
decay... A woman excuses premeditation... Death takes a holiday...
Science and good intentions make horrific bedfellows... A man hides
from nightmares that invade his waking world... Kelli Owen's first
collection gathers over 60,000 words, including a handful of
out-of-print, difficult-to-find previously published work, a
plethora of new pieces, story notes, drawings inspired by the title
story, and an introduction by the legendary Thomas Monteleone.
