About the Book

Strange Days is a collection of 12 short stories, most of them originally written in the 2000s. Some of them are horror, some just scary, others are sad, surreal, and maybe even a bit sarcastic at times, but if they all have something in common, it's that every single one of them is strange: The black tree: a bizarre children's game beneath a mysterious tree triggers a series of disturbing events. - "The tree would provide." The rotting infant: an earthquake in a small town unearths something that wasn't meant for this world. - "I did my best to be gentle with the child, and even if I whispered the word 'Beelzebub' too, it was only once, and it was so soft that I am sure that nobody heard." Grandma's tale: two sisters have a supernatural encounter in a creepy forest. - "But she replied that even if we did not see it, the full moon was there and that creatures of the night were not fooled by thick clouds." The glass coffin: a man is forced into a macabre lockdown. - "Don't look, it's not important." - "Sometimes the power of habit is greater than the power of reason." Hot chocolate: a Christmas night out takes a dark turn when a couple visits a café that wasn't there before. - "We're kind of a family business..." Full circle: a hit-and-run leads to a revelation about life and death that takes a cosmic turn. - "And as he starts wondering if he has reached the end of the universe, he crosses the point of no return, an event horizon. No, not quite, 'The Event Horizon.'" In a movie: a surreal film review reminds that reality and fiction can sometimes intertwine. - "But the shooting kept going and, if you believe it, kept getting more intense, so much so that I was forced to cover my ears with my palms and look away, not because I could not bear the horrible sight, but because the sound of the shots and the hot shells falling on me by the dozens made it unbearable to remain in such close proximity..." The broken clock: a young man tries to quit his first job, and the aftermath of his decision. - "...but instead he felt double shame. Once for trying to kill the poor animal, and once for failing to do so." Summer nightmare: a family prepares for the Devil's visit. - "That night the Family was expecting a visit from the Devil. There was a great upset in the house. Mother was pacing up and down without doing anything in particular, trying to think of how to welcome Him. The children, sitting on the couch, were watching her in silence. Father was sleeping inside." Lost girls: a man has the strangest encounters in the streets of Athens, as he tries to catch up with his childhood love interest. - "Lost girls. You can dream about them after a nice day, nights when you least expect it. They leave you with a strange taste, not bitter and certainly not sweet; but they mark you for the whole next day with the melancholy of unrealized possibility, with a persistent 'what if...'." - "It's not a crime, if everyone does it." The mirror: a young man learns the hard way that you shouldn't look people in the eye, because they might not like their reflection and things could get ugly. - "They washed the blood with rain and resumed their ritual." The death of the author: an aspiring author on his way home, stumbles upon his own obituary. - "As he was walking down the street, he encountered two or three acquaintances who offered their condolences for his death. News spread fast. He thanked them and continued his way."
