Overview
Kelli Owen's debut collection returns Featuring a foreword by Thomas F. Monteleone
Horror is pessimism at its bleakest. Worst-case scenario. The darker side of reality. The glass half-empty. The situation unfathomable. In Black Bubbles, Kelli Owen presents classic genre tropes--ghosts, murderers, zombies, what you'd expect (sans sharks)--but it's the characters, rather than the tropes, that experience the story, speak of the horrors, and sometimes survive the inevitable. Sometimes.
A decades-old crime shocks a family as evidence points to one of their own...An ancient evil hitchhikes its way to freedom...A child has an unusual fascination with decay...A woman excuses premeditation...Death takes a holiday...Science and good intentions make horrific bedfellows...A man hides from nightmares that invade his waking world...
Kelli Owen's first collection gathers over 60,000 words, including a handful of out-of-print, difficult-to-find previously published work, a plethora of new pieces, story notes, drawings inspired by the title story, and an introduction by the legendary Thomas Monteleone.
