Whims of the Night Winds by P.L. McMillan

The night winds bring a susurrus of dread and whimsy.

Cast forth from shadows and moonbeams, they whisper a dark dirge.

Do you dare follow them?

A starving widow waits for her sea-lost lover to return, abandoned by the townsfolk, haunted by fog and a dark figure out in the water. Cursed, a young man must rise from the grave every Halloween until he spills enough blood to fill his dead heart in order to finally find rest. While cleaning out her late grandma’s house, a woman becomes possessed. The new sheriff learns the hard way why the ladies of a local saloon are so revered. An aspiring influencer attempts to find her own worth, one way or another.

The Moon turns traitor.

From the author of Sisters of The Crimson Vine and What Remains When The Stars Burn Out, P.L. McMillan brings forth eighteen tales of cosmic horror, midnight shivers, and technological terror. Don’t miss out. The winds are wailing.
