PulpWork Christmas Special 2014

(2014)
A collection of stories by

 
 
Herein, you'll find a septet of holiday tales in which the poor characters come to grisly, gory, and sometimes gruesome ends. Pay close attention, and learn from their fates, so that you might not make the same mistakes as they.

You may find it safer to eschew the holiday tradition of the Christmas tree, for at least two stories in the coming pages warn of coniferous killers of the most sinister variety.

Just when you're getting comfortable with the idea of deadly flora, Josh Reynolds and Joel Jenkins turn things topsy turvy by swapping characters. Jenkins tries his hand at a tale of the British Royal Occultist, Charles St. Cyprian and his intrepid and sometimes bloodthirsty apprentice Ebe Gallowglass - both characters created by Reynolds.

Not to be outdone, Josh Reynolds borrows Jenkins' Native American gunfighter, Lone Crow, and teams him up with St. Cyprian and Gallowglass as they hunt down a wendigo in the Canadian wilds.

You'll also find masterful and unnerving Christmas tales by Robert Mancebo and Thomas Deja. Then Derrick Ferguson treats us to a full-blown novella, in which the global instigator, known only as Dillon, takes on the evil entity called the Krampus--drawn from one of the most malign Christmas legends ever recited to frightened, shivering children.
