The church waits in darkness. It looks abandoned, forgotten. It has no congregation, but it is not empty. Under its floor, in a pit dug long ago, lies a wooden crate that was never meant to be unearthed. But the church is finally being renovated and workmen have found the pit. How could they realize what they have done? How could they know the forces they’ve unleashed? Father Pilazzo is overseeing the renovation of the old church. His dream is to see it restored to its former glory. But his dream is becoming a nightmare. He’s begun to see horrific visions, unholy images of death and warnings of terrors to come. And within the church forgotten men fight to survive against impossible demons, while sides are drawn for the ultimate battle . . . |

Is Bev Mathers going crazy? He’s been hearing chilling voices in his head, seeing nightmarish visions that just can’t be true. And it keeps getting worse and worse. No, unfortunately for Bev, he’s completely sane. What’s taking control of him is far more terrifying than insanity. And it has an unimaginable purpose . . . Bev has become an innocent man in an infernal game, a victim of hellish forces beyond understanding. His visions of blood and debauchery are growing more ghastly every day. Some of them — the most shocking — are real. Bev can feel his mind, his body, his very soul slipping away. Will his only hope or his eternal damnation come from . . . the demonologist? The Trade paperback edition published by Delirium is part of the Dark Essentials Series: Vol. 4, Book 4 and contains an additional, related story, not found in the original paperback release. |

The previous owner was Benjamin Conroy, a man obsessed with securing eternal life for himself and his family — even if he had to kill them to do it. Conroy’s perverse ceremony of blood and butchery went hideously wrong, denying him and his family the immortality he sought. But with Johnny’s arrival, Conroy’s spirit has a second chance . . . |

Nominated for the 2002 Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a First Novel. New York City police detective Frank Ballaro is returning home one night when he notices a trail of blood on the curb outside his apartment. It leads to an alley from which a naked man races in a frenzy. An oncoming cab ends the man’s life, but not before he whispers a last, dying word – atmosphere! In the alley, Frank finds a second injured man who desperately clutches a bizarre object, which he guards with his life. Frank soon discovers the hideous meaning behind the word “atmosphere” . . . and the unspeakable terror that comes with it. He can only pray that it spares his life. |

In this second collection, Dregs of Society, we see a different side of Laimo, one filled with personal terrors that don’t rely on made-up monsters or other supernatural entities to frighten. Here, the horrors are quiet, discreet, born of human mind and soul. Psychological. The stories travel many roads: dark, light, simple, intricate, all laden with genuine frights. Not to be misunderstood: spooks do make an appearance, as evident in the Golden Eyes Trilogy, printed together here for the first time in one volume. Do this: Sit back, relax if you can, and experience the dilemmas of Laimo’s characters. Prepare to encounter the Dregs of Society. Table of Contents:
