The Dark Corner Archives

Dana Johansen is being watched. Someone has been following his every move for months. Each month that's passed, they have been getting closer. He doesn't know who they are or what they want. He just knows that they are after him. Now, they're in his house. It's been invaded. If he leaves, the visitor will follow. He's not sure what to do. One thing is certain - if Dana doesn't do something, the visitor will. The Visitor is the first story in The Dark Corner miniseries, a collection of supernatural, dark fantasy short stories, novelettes, and novellas.

Hal Baker is overworked. He's been burning the candle at both ends for seven years, and now, it's caught up with him. When stress and exhaustion overtake him at work, he's ordered to take a break. Doctor's orders. With prompting from his boss and friend, he, his wife Veronica, and his son and daughter Sean and Donna go on a camping getaway. It's there he reconnects with his family and realizes what he's been missing out on. However, this blessing has an unexpected cost. Something strange is happening in Meechum Forest.

Ten-year-old Jason Meechum is a quiet boy who hides in fantasy and science-fiction books. Other kids pick on and make fun of him, but he suffers through it. That's because Jason has a secret. A secret of pain and fear. A secret he wants to tell but can't. All of that is about to change because Jason will be the recipient of something special. Something beautiful, mysterious, wondrous, and odd. Tonight, Jason will be the bearer of two secrets that will meet for the first time. Only one will survive. The outcome will determine if 10-year-old Jason will live to see age 11.
