Montrose Horror Tales

Montrose, the diverse, infamous, and legendary neighborhood in Houston, Texas, sets the stage for these four chilling, unconventional, uniquely suspenseful short horror tales! In the first terrifying tale, set in 1987, find out what drove an eight-year-old boy to murder in a Montrose apartment complex one stormy November night in "Petrichor." Ten years later, what do you get when two twenty-something male film students become enmeshed with a handsome drug dealer/pimp and a thirty-something out of work exotic dancer: nothing good in the comedy-horror tale "God Don't Like Ugly." A Montrose mansion backyard. A ritualistic mass murder. An urban legend about a vengeful coven from the Roaring Twenties. These are a few of the favorite things of the titillating third tale, "Love, Why Don't You Stay. The fourth frightening tale presents a bisexual nightclub owner whose life is thrust into a dizzying tailspin when he becomes a person of interest in the gruesome murder of the man he deemed was his "one that got away" in "The Devil's Breath." This second edition of Montrose Horror Tales features an excerpt from Mike James' upcoming novel "The Discontent Lovers" available March 2020!
