PRESS RELEASE Midwest Book Review by Diane Donovan, Senior Reviewer . . . "Weird Tales by Lyn Murray revitalizes a genre which typically falls somewhere between horror and science fiction: the strange and eerie intersection between faith, fantasy, and disbelief, designed to chill with creepy twists and the unexpected. It's refreshing to see a compilation of stories in this vein that remind readers of exactly what made this niche genre so compelling and provide newcomers with stories that are more than a cut above 'ordinary and expected'. Surprisingly little is written in the classic 'weird' vein nowadays. Lyn Murray's collection is not just a throwback; it's a standout and a testimony to the 1920s approach that still - under the right hand, such as Murray's - can stand just as strongly to new generations, today, offering a subtler but equally powerful psychological brand of horror to those who would absorb more than bloodletting and staccato surface action " * * * Great reviews say it all - Weird Tales tribute Rocks The new Weird Tales collection by author Lyn Murray (the best of Lyn Murray) capsulized in this 500 page compilation that is filled with eerie short stories that are based on real events (available now on Amazon.com) is a tribute to the original magazine first published in 1923 - and to all of the literary greats like Ray Bradbury, H. P. Lovecraft and Isaac Asimov, whose contributions made the magazine a huge success - and all of them a household name. In keeping with the original magazine's creepy agenda - Lyn Murray's nomadic mind takes readers on a wild ride into the paranormal world of supernatural beings called BEKs (Black Eyed Kids) who want in and take your soul when they gain access, strange cemeteries with clandestine itineraries, Bigfoot UFOs, ghostly apparitions on a mission, real Werewolves, the most haunted objects in the world, a streetlight for the dead, night shadows with eyes only for you, nightmares that refuse to leave at dawn, and forbidden places that innocently draw you in then refuse to let you leave. In a world with so many unexplained phenomena - Lyn Murray's Weird Tales carries on a chilly tradition of cold drafts, goosebumps - and things that go bump in the night that will have you looking under your bed and burning closet lights all night - for the rest of your life Weird Tales by Lyn Murray is no respecter of persons - scaring young and old alike, with fast paced, fact-based stories you can't put down. As one fan so aptly noted: "Murray has a fine hand with complicated and disturbing paranormal content, and this collection is unsettling and chilling The hair on the nape of my neck is suitably raised, and Murray is to blame because she is such a skillful writer, bringing the worst imaginings to life with her perfect prose and clever way of pacing with both urgency and elaborate detail, everything from first-hand stories to case studies and research. She's really in command with these tales, like a reporter from the dark side of the paranormal mind." Alex Prosper. A different kind of writer, Lyn Murray is a Documentarian Storyteller whose writing style puts you at ease - like enjoying coffee and conversation with an old friend, all the while looking over your shoulder for fear someone (some thing) is creeping up behind you - because somewhere in the back of your mind you know that this is more than just fiction - it's REAL Weird Tales by Lyn Murray Available NOW on Amazon.com Offered by Golden Panda Publishing goldenpandapublishing@gmail.com
