Pandemic: Horrors Written In Lockdown
Matt Shaw - 2020
As an author, my life didn’t really change too much as I tend to stay home most of the time anyway. Of course there were changes when I did go outside (such as queuing up to get into stores, social distancing and whatnot but that was about it, for me). I guess I was one of the lucky ones as people lost friends and loved-ones to the virus, as well as jobs.As I write this, we are indeed still locked down. More and more people are ignoring the rules in the UK though and deaths are on the up so God only knows when the world will return to what we once knew before all of this crap.Still… One benefit, it has given me some ideas for some more horror stories centred around the global pandemic and here, in this collection, I present them to you.Stay safe, kiddies.Collected herePart OneA Taste Of Things To Come - A Series of DrabblesPart TwoGreta - a short storyThe House Guests - a short storyDeath Rattle - a short storyThe Morgues Were Full - a short storyHappy Anniversary - a short storyPart ThreeThe Lockdown Killer - a novella
