Scary

Book excerpt: The unthinkable thoughts and depraved deeds of people, nature, and the seriously supernatural are voyeuristically exposed with an amazing alliterative allure in Barbara Eck Tosi’s SCARY. This psychotically charged collection of nightmarish narratives unfolds in refreshingly rhythmic rhymes. Overdosed with injections of spine-splintering sordidness, SCARY dares you to experience its macabre and maniacal madness. At the mercy of monsters that maliciously manipulate their minds, these contorted and calamitous characters dance deliberately and deliriously across pages steeped in insanity, pain, isolation, and fear. The warped worlds of these peculiar and perverse psychotics are saturated in sinister streams of consciousness. Peaceful narratives periodically penetrate the pathetic preponderance of pain with their sacred salutations of sanity and salvation. Have you a penchant for pursuing the psyche’s darkest demons and deepest divides? This deliciously disturbing collection of shockingly scary vignettes will find you double-locking your windows, triple-bolting your doors, and exponentially increasing the wattage of your living room lights. In an unusual, enticing, and entertaining way, SCARY feverishly frightens those brave enough to climb its hyperbolic heights.
