Overview
Halloween horror, dark fiction and suspense short stories.
Carve your pumpkins and turn on the porch light,
Halloween frights begin with the sound of...Doorbells at Dusk.
Halloween has always gone hand-in-hand with horror. The holiday gives many children their first taste of terror, the discovery and overcoming of fears. For those who find they love a good scare, that first taste can grow into a voracious appetite.
That might be why you're looking at this book right now. If so, you've come to the right place.
Doorbells at Dusk is a treasury of brand-new Halloween tales from both modern masters and rising stars of dark fiction, horror and suspense.
These are the thrills you crave, packed into a collection that's pure Halloween.

About Corpus Press:
We specialize in publishing horror and weird tales from both well-known modern masters of horror and rising stars in the horror genre. Amazing stories are what we seek to collect for your reading enjoyment: only the best new horror, dark fiction, thriller, suspense and just plain weird short stories and novellas to populate our horror anthologies, horror collections and other new horror books.
We're committed to providing horror kindle books and audiobooks for every taste, from literary horror to pulp and bizarro. You'll find a wide range of horror short stories, horror anthologies and horror novellas from which to choose, everything from supernatural stories to psychological horror, sometimes eerie like The Twilight Zone, sometimes humorous like Tales from the Crypt, sometimes horrific like Tales from the Darkside. Our well-received Bad Apples: Halloween Horror anthology series delivers some of the best Halloween short stories available.
We don't have paranormal books or teen paranormal (sorry), and we're not big on zombie books, vampires, gothic novels, dark fantasy, splatterpunk and unnecessarily hardcore horror, either. But as long as it's told in a fresh and thrilling way, almost anything is fair game: demonic horror, ghosts and specters, haunted houses, ghost novels, werewolves, apocalyptic horror - you name it, we probably have it. Corpus Press aims to be highly recommended horror reading for adults and older teens, striving to bring only the top horror books, audio books and some of the best horror of the year.

Jason Parent is an author of horror, thrillers, mysteries, science fiction, and dark humor, though his many novels, novellas, and short stories tend to blur the boundaries between these genres. From his award-winning first horror/mystery novel, What Hides Within, to his widely applauded police procedural/supernatural thriller, Seeing Evil, Jason's work has won him praise from both critics and fans of diverse genres alike. He has lived in New England most his life, currently residing in Rhode Island.
Adam Light resides in northeast Florida with his beautiful wife and daughter, and their aptly, though perhaps not so imaginatively named Walker hound, Walker. He haunts a cubicle by day, writes horror stories at night, and virtually never sleeps. He is the author of several short horror stories, some of which have been published in his first collection Toes Up: Horror to Die For. He also has stories in the Bad Apples anthology series and Dead Roses: Five Dark Tales of Twisted Love.
