Sixteen tales of the undead, all set in the colder months. Learn the definition of chilling in Tom Wescott's "Coffin Dirt" and James Simpson's "Mit Den Augen Der Toten." Meet dead family members in Neil Davies' "Abandoned" and Sylvia McIver's "Candles Against the Dark" - but be careful - not all reunions are loving. Read tales of ancient undead from D.J. Tyrer and Carl Thomas Fox - and a modern variant from Jason Purdy. Find out what Dickens' Ghost of Christmas Future does once her job is over in "Fear of the Future" by Gareth Barsby. What are zombies like in the winter? Jay Wilburn and Spencer Carvalho will be happy to show you. Interested in adventure? Alex Azar takes you "Under the Hood of Winter." Take a lonely road into fear with Guy Burtenshaw, find unusual allies in the forest with Ryan Tandy, and learn about true survival in Stephanie Stamm's "Phantom Pains." Prefer to stick close to home, where it's safe? Shenoa Carrol-Bradd and Lance Zarimba will make you feel a lot less secure. So, grab a blanket before settling down to read this book... but you might want to keep a firearm handy, just in case.
