If you liked the spine-tingling, Stoker-inspired terror of Shadows In the Dark, then you will love the collection of related stories that takes place around the same point at the turn of the 19th century around the Great Lakes. The Great Lakes have always been filled with beauty, awe and mystery. Now they offer up waves of frightening tales of suspense and terror. From Flying Dutchman-like Mariners to an unspeakable evil transported back to Chicago from its Egyptian Tomb, to a ship's log revealing it was more than just a storm which killed its crew, to vengeful ghosts and big fish tales. These stories are sure to give you pause about ever journeying into the Great Lakes regions at night, or ever going anywhere near them....alone.
