The human soul is an ethereal sponge, collecting and absorbing emotions-good and bad-and holding them for eternity. But the darker emotions-fear, anguish, loneliness-are far denser, more destructive...and sometimes, they can crack the soul. A man in a bleak, futuristic society where physical sex is banned will stop at nothing to acquire the one thing he cannot have-love. A mayor in a small Canadian town must watch helplessly as his entire population falls victim to a ferocious plague. A stained-glass window inspires an artist, but not in the spiritual manner in which he imagines. Let your soul absorb their emotions and more in eighteen disturbing tales of horror.
