“Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells,
Santa’s looking mad!”
Hi everyone. I’m proud to have my story ‘Clockwork Christmas’ included in this wonderful new anthology. Here’s something to wet your appetite, some links, and a giveaway.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…or is it?
Christmas Eve is a night of mystery and magic, but not always in ways we expect. Things lurk in the shadows and they’re not the least bit jolly or merry. Let’s just say some presents are better left unopened.
‘Tis the season to be screaming along with our thirteen tales of holiday horrors. Ghosts. Monsters. Demons. And more!
This Christmas, be careful what you wish for…

Hi Richard. Just letting you know I ordered the paperback version of this book tonight. I keep my promises. It will be good to have something by you in print (until your book comes out). I probably won’t be commenting here anymore. It’s no offense but I’m a writer not a groupie.
Bye.
No worries and thank you, Laine.
Congrats, Richard. The anthology looks like frightful fun. 😀
Thanks, Diana, I like to think so 🙂
Awesome news, Richard, congratulations! 🙂
Congratulations Richard! I will be getting your book too. 🙂
Thanks, Vera. My story is just one of thirteen but I’m very pleased with the whole thing.
You’re welcome. It appears frightening.🎅
Not too much, I hope. 🙂
LOL! Enough that I will leave 1 cookie for santa, instead of 2! 😂
Plus one for me 🙂
Sure.🍪here it is!

Hi Richard, congratulations on the launch of the book. Sounds very much like my kind of book.
Just one slight problem. I was not able to enter the free giveaway. Entered my details and got this message.
1 error prohibited this record from being saved:
Country code is not one of the countries allowed for this giveaway
Does that mean I really can not enter the giveaway? 😦
I honestly don’t know, Hugh. It’s the publisher’s promotion and blurb. They are a U.S company, so I can only presume that’s the case. I’m really sorry.
I’m back.
I just went to have a look myself and it says U.S and Canada only. I’ll put that on the blog. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
No problem at all, Richard. I’ll be buying the book anyway 🎅
BTW, I love the trailer. Have you seen the movie ‘Black Christmas’? I’m hoping the stories are not as frightening as that movie.
No, I haven’t. I don’t think the stories are too frightening as the book is aimed at middle grade students upwards. My own story is more inferred horror than anything, but that’s the way I write anyway.
Sounds great, congrats!!
Thank you 🙂
A perfect horror gift for people who does not celebrate Christmas.
For those who feared Krampus coming! LOL
Yes, very true 🙂
Yay you!! One story or 50 how exciting! Does the happy dance 😀😀😀😀😀
Thank ye kindly, J 🙂
Ye is most welcome 😊 R
😄☕️
Damned good teaser – held my attention – stirred my desire (and I never read frightening stories)
Glad you liked it 🙂
Fantastic – well done you 🙂
Much appreciated 🙂
How absolutely wonderful!!!! Congratulations and loved the video. This is a wonderful post. I’m so happy for you. 🙂
Oh, and yes, I’m going to check out your book. 🙂
I’m just one of thirteen, but it’s nice to be in it 🙂
Thank you very much 🙂
