I always get excited when I open my mailbox and see that the latest issue of Morpheus Tales is sitting in there waiting to be read. I have come to expect great things from each issue; riveting, well written stories and accompanying artwork that adds so much to the tales.
Issue #13 is no exception. I thought every story was strong and I particularly loved this issue’s artwork. As per Morpheus Tales usual quality, this group of stories is varied, well written and packed with enough frights, mayhem and bloodshed to appeal to a wide audience of horror lovers.
But, as with all groups of stories, a few did manage to really resonate with me;
Red Blood, Black Blood by Deborah Walker
Illustrated by Vladimir Petkovic
Glass Castles by Cate Caldwell
Pretty Flowers by Nicholas Stirling
Stasis by Richard Smith
Thanatasia by Jonathan W. Bremer
Soup by Alex Gonzalez

Some Things Aren’t Anything by Erik T. Johnson

Bert & Reg by Brian Kutco

The Suicide Club by John Morgan

My favorite story this issue was Burt & Reg by Brian Kutco.
