Noises From the Basement is a collection of horror stories, which suspends normal human beliefs of the typical, the mundane, the predictable, and the scientific assumptions upon which people depend to live their everyday lives without going insane. Among these stories, the reader is provided with chilling reason to consider the sinister possibilities behind a little girl's love for a hideous doll; lonely men working the graveyard shift on a cold Halloween night; a case of road rage that gets out of hand; a world where children have complete authority; a rip in the time fabric where strange creatures abound; and a defunct secret and illegal recombinant DNA experiment that has dreadful consequences . . . just to name a few. This book is based upon the inexplicable dread a person feels when he or she is warm and safe in bed, and there's a noise from the basement; yet, every ounce of one's being screams not to go down there. The stories herein prey upon irrational human fears and continually ask the question, What if? regarding the occult and the unthinkable. These 10 stories contain characters and storylines that, I hope, are deliciously flawed and twisted. Hence, I have done my job.
