The Collection
When the streets come alive
On Devil's Night in Detroit, MI, the streets come alive, with monsters and ghouls haunting the streets and terrorizing the city.
Devil's Night is a small collection of short stories and poems that are chilling and entertaining. It begins with a story that introduces the Nain Rouge, a mythical creature said to roam the streets on Devil's Night causing mayhem.
In between the short stories are poems to set the chilly mood.
Inside you'll crash a Halloween party, wander a haunted cemetery full of vampires, free a giant basilisk, get trapped in a house of clowns, and learn why you never speed down Knock Knock Street.
