We All Go Into the Dark by Kevin Lucia


 It's waiting for us, regardless of who we are. Banker. Lawyer. Teacher. Carpenter. No matter our station in life, someday, we will all go into the dark. And no town is more acquainted with darkness than Clifton Heights, NY. So take your chance and step into the dark throughout these four

Zootown: A lost man seeking a new purpose and life finds something ancient and sinister in the ruins of a carny town just outside Clifton Heights.

The Man Who Sits in His Chair: There is a man who sits in his chair in front of his house, just across from The Motor Lodge in Clifton Heights. Why does he sit there? What does he see? A corporate lawyer on vacation will find out, much to his despair.

In the Court of the Spider A photography enthusiast visits Clifton Heights to photograph the area’s spiders, and discovers a dark eldritch secret huddled in the ruins of the Freivald Health and Wellness Spa, out on Bassler Road.

To Slip the Surly Bonds of Earth: The burned out and cynical host of the paranormal YouTube show Ghost Coasters finds something to believe in again as he searches the ruins of Raedeker Park Amusement Park for ghosts, and finds something much worse.

We All Go Into The Dark is a chilling quartet of novellas featuring abandoned places, ghosts, grief, guilt, and folklore all tied together in the mysterious town of Clifton Heights.

In Zootown, a man is intrigued by a beautiful stranger and decides to camp out in an abandoned spot he's been warned away from. Why do people in horror always ignore these warnings? I'll tell you why. It's so that I can enjoy the chilling consequences from the safety of my cozy reading spot.

Car troubles leave a man stranded at the Motor Lodge in Clifton Heights and leads to unraveling the mystery of The Man Who Sits In His Chair. Unfortunately some secrets are best left to the unknown. Once you find out it's too late to run.

In the Court of the Spider A nature photographer who is currently on the hunt for spiders makes a terrifying discovery in an abandoned spa. This creepy crawly story gave me the heebie-jeebies!

The host of a streaming paranormal show receives an online suggestion to visit the ruins of Raedeker Amusement Park in To Slip the Surly Bonds of EarthThis abandoned theme park went out of business after several deaths on the property. Do their spirits remain? Or has his own past caught up to him?

I need a way to rate this book 20 stars. 4 novellas at 5 stars each leaves the math not mathing on sites that only allow 5 stars!

Each novella is genuinely scary, in that delightfully shivery way that this horror lover craves. Kevin Lucia has knocked it out of the park with this one. It will be on my best horror of the year list.
