Horror-scopes - Divination of the macabre variety
Sooth Sawyer's prediction for Capricorn: The stars will align; you will be lost among them.
After a Lean Winter
written by David Farland, performed by Rick Jelinek, art by Pete Newbauer, music by James Guymon
Could it be that the two species, Man and Martian each bred to savagery, might coexist?
There were no enemy ships on the horizon, so I watched as Pierre swept into Hidden Lodge on Titchen Creek late on a moonless night. His two sled dogs huffed and bunched their shoulders, then dug their back legs in with angry growls, hat...
The Second Rat
written by David Barr Kirtley, performed by Bob Barnes, art by Thomas Meldgaard Nielsen, music by James Guymon
Eternal life comes at a price.
"Now, Mr. Rawlins. You've made remarkable amounts of money investing in the marketplace. Tell us, what's your secret?" "It's really quite simple, Dan," I said. "You see, I can rewind life." There was long pause. I heard a technician co...
On My Way to Paradise
written by David Farland, performed by David Wilkinson, art by Stanley Lau, music by James Guymon
A war rages. On Earth. On Baker. And in the heart of Senor Angelo Osic.
A dusty gray hovercraft floated to a stop in front of my booth in the feria. As its door flipped open, an emaciated woman struggled up from the shadows within and into the stabbing daylight. A strange feeling swept over me, the physica...
Primary Colors
written by Richard Raleigh, performed by Bob Barnes, art by Omaha Perez, music by James Guymon
He was losing his soul through his eyes.
Subtly, shade by shade, his green eyes were turning blue, and his soul was evaporating, shimmering like a mirage just out of his field of vision, dancing with the ripples of heat above the sand. Like the stark white clouds along the very...
Expensive Gifts
written by Miles Romney, performed by Ken Richman, art by Tassya Putho, music by James Guymon
Of Euros and years, which has the greater value?
Manolo followed the light down the corridor and past the plain wooden door, into an anteroom covered in Persian carpets and a mass of exotic clutter. The worn wooden furniture was missing most of its brass studs and its brittle satin up...
Veil of Ignorance
written by David Barr Kirtley, performed by Rick Jelinek, art by Jose Garcia Lopez, music by James Guymon
There is friendship... and then there is ignorance.
Something strange is happening to me. We’re at Conrad’s vacation house, a sprawling mansion that orbits the gas giant Hades-3. (His father owns both the house and the planet.) Conrad is in the living room watching sports. His girlfriend...
The Elf Trap
written by Francis Stevens, performed by Katherine Grey, art by Ricci Gertz, music by James Guymon
The finest trap convinces its victim that he wishes to be caught.
Everywhere were lights, hung in the flowering branches of trees, glowing upward from the grass, blazing from every door and window. Why they should have been turned on so abruptly, after that first darkness, I do not yet know. Out of t...
The River is Forever
written by Edmund R. Schubert, performed by Rob Moffat, art by Angel Moon, music by James Guymon
Pain passes, but this river is forever.
It’s the inevitable question people ask when someone commits suicide. They wring their hands and look to heaven, saying, “Why? Dear God, why?” Of course, now that I’m fifty-six, I realize people’s reasons for committing suicide sound t...
