Bone Orchard Mythos: The Passageway by Jeff Lemire Pdf

From the creative team of GIDEON FALLS and PRIMORDIAL comes the first book in a bold and ambitious new shared horror universe! When a geologist is sent to a remote lighthouse to investigate strange phenomenon he finds a seemingly endless pit in the rocks. But what lurks within and how will he escape its pull? THE PASSAGEWAY is the first of a dozen new interconnected projects making up THE BONE ORCHARD MYTHOS from LEMIRE and SORRENTINO! The Bone Orchard Mythos is an ambitious expansion for the powerhouse creative team and will span multiple books and across a variety of different storytelling formats. Each title will tell its own unique, self-contained tale some as stand-alone hardcover graphic novels, some as miniseries comics, and some as longer format maxiseries comics but they will all be set within the same world and add to the overall Bone Orchard mythology. The team plans to release at least two new titles each year, for the next several years. In Summer 2022 the horrors begin with a hardcover graphic novel titled, The Passageway which follows a geologist sent to a remote lighthouse to investigate a strange phenomenon. In 2023 Lemire and Sorrentino will follow up with a miniseries collection titled, Ten Thousand Black Feathers, and then another original graphic novel hardcover in 2023 titled Tenement.

The Apple Orchard by Pete Brown Pdf

Taking us through the seasons in England's apple-growing heartlands, this magical book uncovers the stories and folklore of our most familiar fruit. 'An orchard is not a field. It's not a forest or a copse. It couldn't occur naturally; it's definitely cultivated. But an orchard doesn't override the natural order: it enhances it, dresses it up. It demonstrates that man and nature together can - just occasionally - create something more beautiful and (literally) more fruitful than either could alone. The vivid brightness of the laden trees, studded with jewels, stirs some deep race memory and makes the heart leap. Here is bounty, and excitement.'

The Orchard by Charles L. Grant Pdf

The Orchard is the best book I've read by Grant. Far better than the Nestling and the Pet. Its shortcomings are that its only 288 pages. The tale is about a mysterious orchard left by the owner years ago and its very spooky. A group of friends have a picnic one night in the orchard and then someone gets hit by a car and later dies. After that the book is essentially four stories with the characters tied together. Each different character has a terrifying encounter with scary events. There's a spooky movie theater, a haunted hospital, and other tales of chilling horror. Probably the scariest book I've ever read, and I've read many. Since the book is so short Grant doesn't dwell much on character development. The pacing of the book is great as the mystery builds up. His writing style seems simplistic and the prose is almost like poetry at times. He remains a stellar author not just in horror but can match up with the best of them all. He creates chilling visual imagery and sets up the spooky atmosphere for the book to give any reader a good scare. Its a hard book to find but its the best in horror that I've come across.

In her dreams, a ghost demands to be heard... Trisha Eaton has been plagued by mysterious nightmares ever since her parents adopted her as a young girl. She chalked them up to childish nuisances until they return-- with a vengeance. Something about the Drake house next door to her family’s apple orchard haunts her.

As the new deputy in town, Nick just wants to put his traumatic past behind him. An undeniable attraction for Trisha has piqued interest and has him wondering if a shot at a normal life was possible. But Trisha has somehow struck a nerve, and a long-buried secret. A secret that someone they know will kill to keep veiled. Uncovered answers only seem to lead to more questions in a case where nothing makes sense. One chilling fact remains... some nightmares are all too real. "Lovely prose, compelling characters, and unexpected plot twists make this a genre-bending winner!" ~Roxanne St. Claire, New York Times Bestselling Author

Tales of Two Peninsulas and an Island by Gary F. Swagart Pdf

In Tales of Two Peninsulas and an Island, Gary Swagart recalls some of his experiences as a semi-Yooper kid before he changed to a Troll and later became a Yooper again. Many of these experiences revolved around subsistence living farm life, which contained a lot of hard work, drudgery, even. Some of the stories are about some real characters, simply because that is just what they were. His love of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, Lake Superior, and Isle Royale shows through despite some hair-raising, near-miss incidents that easily could have resulted in catastrophe (including putting his wife in jail.) In this sometimes harsh, but always beautiful part of the world, Death can slip its icy fingers around the unwary without warning. Something as simple as getting a wet foot or forgetting to put car flaps down can be fatal. As can be getting lost in a Lake Superior fog, going downwind, or dropping a wrench in a boat. Simply underestimating the amount of time it will take to get from point A to point B can be fatal. The person who escapes the icy fingers learns to appreciate just how tenuous the thread of life can be.
