Her Infernal Name and Other Nightmares by Robert P. Ottone
Let me start by saying that short stories are not my usual jam. I often find that the stories are not interesting enough or go on for way too long. This book has changed everything for me.
I LOVED every story in this collection. Each one felt like it was written for me. There are demons, zombies, aliens and more! This is the perfect book for fans of classic and new age horror.
The title story, Her Infernal Name, left me wanting more. Shoshana is a recently unemployed teacher drowning in student loan debt. Her debt agency offers a position as a tutor/personal assistant for a social media guru. Royce is young, impossibly beautiful, and very inappropriate for her age. Despite their differences, Shosh and Royce become as close as sisters do. Like most horror stories, not all is as it seems.
My favorite story from the collection is Kelly, Watch the Stars. After many attempts to get pregnant and failing, Kelly is now divorced and angry. The doctors tell her that her womb has been so scarred that she may never be able to carry a child. Kelly is determined to find out what happened to her. Through past regression therapy, she finds out she was abducted by aliens. Now that Kelly knows what happened to her, she is out for revenge.
Honestly, all the stories are fun and leave you entertained. I highly recommend for fans of horror!
