This collection comprises some of my earliest works, from Creepypastas including "The Fear Experiment" and "The Pit", to stories written exclusively for HorrorBabble, including "They’ve Got a Killer View" and "VANITY LTD." This book and subsequent volumes are the sum of my efforts to illustrate what I know of fear, as high strangeness continues to manifest itself in a world spiraling rapidly out of control. But I like to think there’s a lighter side too....

Fantastic narration of some tremendous stories
As always, HorrorBabble delivers. The titular tale especially is very gripping and intense. Classical horror made to be modern.

Great narration of some of RE Howard's writings
Many focus on Conan the Barbarian and rightly so. His legacy is sure as The Riddle of Steel. But I was very pleasantly surprised by these offerings. This Kathulos of Egypt reminds me in some ways of Scorpion from Mortal Kombat at least by description. REHs vampire tales play like a full length feature in the mind while Ian Gordon is reading.
Well done!

Tales of Racism and Misogyny
Robert E Howard was recommended to me as a writer in the style of Lovecraft. Sure, Lovecraft is racist, but these stories are an order of magnitude of racism above Lovecraft. They are terrifying: the views he holds are truly horrific, the stories themselves pretty lame. I tried to get through the first one, but couldn't stand it.
