Ghosts can Bleed
Tracie McBride
Dark Continents Publishing
145 pages, Paperback
Ghosts can Bleed is a collection of dark stories and some poetry thrown in the mix. 42 tales. Some make you think, some make you smile (evilly), and there are a few in there that didn't strike my fancy. Overall, this collection hits the awesome mark quite high.
My favorite tale is: Fridge Wars.
Baptism runs a close second.
All the stories are different to what you would expect, not traditional in the slightest as there is a mix of fantasy, horror and weird. More weird than the rest (like Fridge Wars).
Some books you just can't help but like and this is one of them. All the stories resonate with the reader and you are quickly pulled into the world Tracie has created.
Not much can be said without giving anything away but I did like the tid-bits of info at the top of some of the stories, these are always fun to read, especially how a story came about.
Get yourself a copy and you'll be in for a heck of a ride.
4 out of 5 stars.
