According to Bill

Marking Glenn's first real short story featuring Skaler, According to Bill is a subtle, atmospheric work, with a creeping sense of unease. 

Set in the dimly lit, tobacco haunted recesses of a blues club, where no-one really looks into each others faces; the story explores ideal territory for a vampire with a passion for music...

Bill's name is an honour of Glenn's grandfather, who would no doubt disapprove, at least whilst he was in earshot.

   
The Geritoff's House

Glenn James' second story inspired by the enigmatic Tudor House 'Lindy Lous', in Wolverhampton, risks venturing into the private life of a deadly individual. 

Anyone who has ever dared to peek through the windows of a deserted house late at night, especially if it has a reputation for being haunted, should find this a dark cautionary tale. 



   
Addicted to Love

Donovan Blik is a failed musician, who has just heard the greatest band in the world.  The oddly publicity shy Skaler, and his underground group 'Chorus Angelaum'. He is determined to make them rich in spite of themselves, and can’t understand why they are so very elusive...

A cautionary tale for any would be Simon Cowell; 'Addicted to Love' flips the obsession of sudden fame for rock stars completely on its head, and looks at how a vampire with a love of music would handle the attention...

The second Skaler story focusing on his afterlife as a musician, it focuses on his band 'Chorus Angelaum'.

   
Crookbarrow

A writer has long held an obsessive interest in Crookbarrow Hill, and when the opportunity come to live near the mysterious mound whilst writing, he cannot resist the temptation. 

But a chance romantic meeting leads him down the path to a dark and pagan ruination...

The first of Glenn’s ghost stories based in Worcestershire, 'Crookbarrow' was inspired by the famous Whitty-Tump near the M5 motorway.  This caused the nightmare which became this pagan short story.
