Sacrum Umbra: The Gothic Horror of Amanda M. Lyons

In the dark heart of our imagination, and the haunted corners our past there are places we fear to tread. As much as we might try to outrun them, as much as we might try to deny their truths, we are owned by their shape, molded by their claws. The story of our being, they form a Sacrum Umbra, a sacred shadow of improbable origin - our own dark heart.

***** " One of the BEST short story collections ever!!
Sometimes I get frustrated when I get a books filled with short stories. A lot of the time there will be one story I love, a few more that are just OK, and some that bore me to death!! These short stories are all so good. And they were actually creepy (maybe not scary for me because books and movies never actually make me feel scared...I might be a sociopath with no feeling or something lol). I also really liked the narrators voice. He definitely made the stories sound more creepy! I totally recommend! "
