The Blood Collector

Vampires, demons, and ghosts haunt the pages of these 21st century horror stories. It’s an even scarier collection than Robert Wells acclaimed first book, The Devil is Missing. A doctor who opens a new private practice requests his patients pay him by donating a pint of their blood because he specialises in haematology and needs it for research. But the truth is that the doctor has other plans on how to use the blood. A painting bought at an antiques shop changes images, with each one foretelling a disaster that will follow. Mystery surrounds a young boy found alone in a wood; he cannot speak and he is dressed in clothes that date from 100 years ago. Events spiral out of control, with fatal consequences, when a man meets his doppelganger while out shopping. What is the horrifying secret that is discovered in the attic where a couple’s son is heard whispering to another boy who isn’t there? And a wall starts to bleed at the bungalow left to a young couple by their uncle. If you have a taste for terror, this new collection of 14 stories is perfect for you. But can you read them and still sleep at night?
