Description

This is not your average horror collection. Manx-iety is a gathering of stories based on the author's real-life experience. From addiction to incarceration and all the horrors in between. Daemon Manx has seen them all and shares those stories with the readers.

The stories in this book were inspired by real-life events. Some are loose interpretations of my nightmares and experiences, and others are dark memoirs. All were designed to evoke emotion. Longing, fear, remorse, desperation, and of course, anxiety, are a few of the horrors we all face and the ones from which there is often no escape. These stories were written during the most difficult periods in my life. Addiction, incarceration, and depression are the demons of which I speak. Creating this compilation became the tool I used to overcome these demons. This is the product of that struggle. This is Manx-iety.

I have used my experiences as the foundation for this collection. Some of the stories are memoirs, many are simply nightmares, all of which, I hope, you will enjoy. Daemon Manx

Advance Praise

"Part memoir, part fever dream, the line between reality and fiction is blurred into an evocative slurry where both exist at once. It doesn't matter which is which, the emotions that remain are enough to ensure the tales within will linger long after the book is closed." - M Ennenbach – Author of Dreamwhispers

"The sixteen stories shared here range from experiences of infidelity, childhood trauma, depression, domestic abuse, grief, addiction, and some just plain terrifying horror tales. Manx writes so well that getting involved in his musings and memories is intoxicating." - Grady Harp

"Expect sensations of rapid breathing, pounding heart rates and profuse sweating while reading Manx-iety. It truly is an emotional tour of the mind that the author wants to show you. Daemon Manx has built his own tortured asylum, and you the reader, have been committed." - A highly rated Horror Bookworm Recommendation.
