The Dark Monocle has been posted.

I love Vampire stories. I love Steampunk. Personally, I think that the two combined are better than chocolate and peanut butter. So here’s the first entry into a long and twisted serial that pits a fearless vampire hunter and his Steampunk technology against an ancient and cunning master vampire who wishes to consume Victorian London. I hope you enjoy the genres as much as I do.

New stories are posted!

Both “The Chimney Bat” and “Leopard St. Phone Booth” have been posted, and more stories are coming soon. During the countdown to Halloween, I’ll post “Puppet”, “Russian Devil Hotel”, “The Dark Monocle”, “Mirror of Jakarta” and maybe a couple of others if they are ready.

Then, on Halloween, I’ll post a children’s tale that I’ve been working on. It’s still a bit scary, so read it before you read it to them…but it’s surreal, and fantastical, and fun, so you know it’s not one of my regular stories. heh

Anyway, happy reading.

Fatima Barcelos obituary…

The news posted at Innsmouth Free Press was shocking, and yet anyone that knew her would have a hard time saying that they were surprised. The story of Fatima’s demise is told in full in Rio Tiburon. Click on Library & Podcasts, then on Miles Boothe Theatre. You’ll find the horrifying truth there…

Happy Halloween!

This year, I’m posting three scary treats for your reading pleasure: Just go to the “Library & Podcasts” link above. Scroll down and click on Miles Boothe Theatre, and you’ll see them listed there.

The first is Blanket of Darkness. This is a story that might have been titled What If the Good Guys Suddenly Lost?, but that seemed a bit long for a flash story. It’s a little glimpse of the end through the eyes of the loser of the ulimate battle, and those of a small town.

Vicious Circle takes a different turn. Written in a fit of frustration, this one is about embracing the freedom to go after exactly what you want, when you want it. Just be careful of who you bump into along the way, and look out for what’s waiting in the deep end. heh

Rio Tiburon is a monster story, plain and simple. Set in the Amazon jungle, this story brings ocean cryptids to life and turns a bloodthirsty horde loose on your imagination. You may want to take your bath before you read this one…

Enjoy the stories and the evening!

The Fallow Soul

The Fallow Soul, posted on the Miles Boothe Theatre page, is one story in a series named “Borderlanders”.

The Borderlander stories are tied to Black Horse and The Searcy Incident, and each reveal a facet of our connection to the other side – a side where our nightmares come from. Each character caught up in this world sees a tiny piece of the place where our fear were born, and why they are such an intrinsic part of our instinctual reaction to unexplained events in our lives.

More Borderlander tales will follow.

Do you like a good ghost story?

I do. I love them, and always have. You can go ahead and add monster stories to the list as well, and anything horror related in general.

This is my site, and it features my stories. Everything is available for your reading or listening pleasure and the stories range from short tales to novel length, and then some.
