It Haunts the Mind: And Other Stories

By: Nick Roberts, Crystal Lake Publishing, Crystal Lake Audio

Narrated by: Alex Schiffer

From Nick Roberts, the best-selling author of The Exorcist's House and Anathema, comes fifteen dark tales that are as horrific as they are moving.

Witness absolute evil in “Sally Under the Bed” and “It Haunts the Mind.” Endure vengeance and violence in “The Noose” and “The Bitter End.” Face the realities of addiction and grief in “Thanks for Sharing” and “The Weeping Wind.”

Survive otherworldly monsters in “The Paperboy” and “Voodoo Bay.”In balancing the terrors of the supernatural with the horrors of real life, this collection drags you down the dark alleys of a haunted mind, forcing you to confront your demons, both real and imaginary.

“Come for the horror, stay for the heartbreaking emotion that bleeds into every page. Roberts really shows his range here, and it’s obvious early on in these stories that they will stick with you long after reading them. It Haunts The Mind is that damn good.”—John Durgin, author of The Cursed Among Us and Inside The Devil’s Nest.

“Nick Roberts has an uncanny ability to scare the bejesus out of readers. With It Haunts the Mind & Other Stories, he does it time and time again. Highly recommended if you don’t want to sleep in the dark again.”—James Aquilone, Bram Stoker Award-nominated editor and writer of Classic Monsters Unleashed, Shakespeare Unleashed, and Kolchak: The Night Stalker - 50th Anniversary

Great Collection of Short Horror Stories

It’s difficult to tell a good short story but Nick Robert’s does a great job! I enjoyed every single one.

Meh

Through audible the stories were cut short before starting the next one. Not sure why that was happening. So I never heard the conclusion to the stories. Good enough stories. The narrator was boring as hell though.

Nick Roberts does it again !

This is a fantastic collection of short stories . can't wait to read or listen to what is next from Nick .

Not his best but decent

There were more “misses” than “hits” in this collection of stories but that’s probably because I loved his full length novels so much that I hold the bar high. There were some really amazing stories here “The Noose” and “Sally Under the Bed” are good examples - but a lot of the stories just seemed to rehash themes from previous ones. I’m still a fan of the author but many of these just weren’t memorable enough

Great Anthology

This is the best anthology I’ve read or listened to since Stephen King’s Nightmares and Dreamscapes. Every story kept me engaged and on the edge of my seat.
