Dark and Darker Still
Táto e‑kniha
You stand before a deep tunnel. The beam of your flashlight barely penetrates the darkness beyond the opening. You cannot know what secrets—or dangers—lie within, but you are curious, and so, cautiously, you enter. At first you can still see the last rays of sunlight behind you, but soon the pathway begins to split and twist. There is scratching movement in the shadows around you, whispering voices in a language you cannot understand. The walls close in, something draws near. You want to turn and run but can no longer remember which path leads back.
And that’s when your flashlight goes out.
Like this tunnel, the terrifying stories in this collection grow darker with each step. Around each twist and turn you’ll encounter lost ghosts, insatiable demons, deadly prophecies, possessed children, ravenous monsters—and, for those who reach the final pages, unspeakable horrors too terrible to describe.
