The host, one of their old friends, seems battered and out of it. The maid acts like a weird robot. The host confesses the house might not actually be his. Over the course of a tense, bizarre evening, the friends soon realize the invitation was to something much more sinister than a reunion: the past. Twenty-five years ago, in 1993, the group experienced something on a summer night in the woods.

Story
It is a world where men wake up with laser beams for eyes and wives play sadistic practical jokes. It is a world where body parts randomly fall off and fathers turn into antelopes. In this world, vampires and spontaneous combustions are a constant threat. The Overwhelming Urge is a collection of bizarro flash fiction, containing ridiculous characters and absurd stories reminiscent of David Lynch and Franz Kafka.

Interesting Mix of Stories
Decent collection of horror story shorts. The first and last story were really solid. Glad it started out and ended on a high note. Wasn't super excited about the stories in between. They weren't bad, they just didn't have the same level of intensity that the others did and seemed to wander around a bit more. I usually enjoy when an author reads their own work, I feel like they have the intimacy with the stories that allow them to really bring each one to life. You can tell that he was able to provide the excitement when it was appropriate, but if felt like he was kinda rushing through it with a monotone voice. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

MONOTONE
The stories were okay - subtle with a decent punch at the end.
I found it nearly impossible to stay engaged while listening because the narration was so monotone. I'm an avid consumer of audiobooks and this is one of the worst narrations I've heard - the lack of inflection or rhythm changes made it almost sound like a droning hum. I'd recommend reading these stories over listening to this narration.

Prunty is sick
This is my 3rd Andersen Prunty book,I have never really been into this genre, but I happened to stumble onto this author and he is quite good at thinking up this stuff, some stories are better than others, but over all I would give this set a solid 4....The narrator is the author himself and he does a good job....I received this audiobook free and this is my voluntary unbiased review.

Eh
The monotone reading made it hard to keep my attention on the stories. The stories were good but would've been more thrilling if it were read differently.
