Beach Snakes (Aiden Merchant) --> Alan and Jane are holidaying together to try and save their marriage. But with Alan's wandering eye and Jane's secret lover, things are harder. But soon they will learn of the Beach Snakes... I like the hints as to what's going on this one and where it leads. It's clever and subtle enough and threw me off a bit I thought it would lead one way but in fact it led another. 4.5/5 Looking for adventure, a couple joins a trip to a local island that is privately owned. The tour guide tells them how exclusive it is and they all can’t wait to see it. When they get there, each couple spreads out across the beach. But then something occurs with one couple, leaving the others reeling. Come relax at this centrally located home that is minutes away from the major attractions of Ocho Rios, such as Dunn's River Falls, Mystic Mountains, Dolphin Cove and Bay Beach, or the vibrate nightlife at the popular nightclubs in downtown Ocho Rios. Denver Grenell's "Phosphorescence" really gets under the skin. Very descriptive in the worst way (which serves the story in a good way). There are only two main characters in the story, and the final actions of one of them was a bit alarming after everything that happened. 3.5 Stars. Argh, the nerve of this guy! I was so happy to see this woman immediately react and not let him just keep doing what he was doing. There were so many red flags here, I just wanted to scream at the character.

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside! Oh I do like to be beside the sea!” Yeah, you might be rethinking that once you’ve read this sublime anthology from DarkLit Press - one half of their debut offering. Slice of Paradise pulls together a bunch of stories that want to take your beach body, inflict acts of terrible horror and violence on it, then rip it apart and toss it away. And, wow, is it a fun experience! Some of the stories hit home more than the others, that’s true of every anthology, Rowan Hill’s " They eat people, you know?" was great – a nice twist included – I’ll be eagerly awaiting her debut novel released in February from D&T press – “ In the arctic sun” – if it is half as good as her short here, it’s going to be fantastic. Astorgos (Ashlei Johnson) --> Holly Cornett and her wife Eva are holidaying on the Amalfi Coast when they find themselves caught up in a meteor shower which leads to strange events unfolding... I did not expect the meteor shower plot line but I appreciate it and like it! A very good story full of emotion and horror! A lot to like here! 4.5/5

The first release from Andrew Robert’s Darklit press was a call out to the horror community for submission pieces for vacation Horror, and he was inundated with the responses – over 300 – to the point that the anthology was expanded to two linked books, Slice of Paradise and Beach Bodies, released simultaneously. One thing I love about short story anthologies is that while every story isn't for you, you can usually find several that pique your interest and a couple that hit absolute homeruns. You're exposed to different writing styles. You meet different authors-- some of whom you fall in love with! And you get worlds and worlds of stories all in the palm of your hands. When a trip to the beach for this father/daughter duo turns dark, the father doesn’t give up, determined to save his daughter. Misery Guts" by Craig Wallwork gets the gross-out award. "Paradise for me is a blood-soaked bathroom in Jamaica, and a dozen red leeches." Justice is served in the form of food poisoning. 4 Stars.PHOSPHORESCENCE (Denver Grenell) --> In New Zealand, on Pohara Beach we find Yasmine and Carlos who are high on shrooms. Carlos tells Yasmine of the phosphorescence waters and invites her for a late night dip... A bit of a slow burner but an enjoyable story! I like the nature of this one and how things gradually evolve and turn nasty. Another well done tale. 4.5/5 Curse of the Cache (Alyson Hasson) --> Cara and Matt were meant to be on a boat tour around Nassau but things went very wrong. They wash up on a seemingly abandoned island and find a strange underground hidey hole. But what is down there?.... Another one where I like the concept. An abandoned historical hideaway beneath the sand really works. I like it! A very strong story that is fast paced and very enjoyable, taking you to an unexpected place. 4.5/5 Beaches are supposed to be havens for relaxation. No one expects something to be in the water or horrific things in the sand. Horror and beach are two of my favorite combinations.

I’m not sure how the weather where you live has been, but this has been a spectacularly brutal Toronto winter over here. So it’s no surprise that I’ve added a couple beach horror novels to the queue this month. Night Dive by Drew Starling: This story has a slower build, which only increases the sense of dread and allows some time to worry about the characters. This was genuinely scary. 4 stars.

Denne villa har 3 soveværelser, køkken med mikrobølgeovn og køleskab, fladskærms-tv, opholdsområde og 2 badeværelser med bidet. I don’t know how much time had passed when the screaming started from the beach; I was totally absorbed in my dictation. The screaming was a terrible cacophony of noise, a chorus of terror and agony. I imagine Hell would be filled with that ghastly sound. I leapt off the bed and ran to the door, praying Eric and Cathy were all right. I’ve never realized before that so many different stories can be told about the beach. And the beach is so scary and suspenseful and refreshing, all at the same time. Full disclosure: this is one of two beach vacation horror anthologies that I edited for DarkLit Press. So while I played a role in this release, as a reader I also stand behind it as an entertaining and diverse collection of horror. I hope everyone enjoys this offering, and I appreciate DarkLit for allowing me to work on this project! Phosphorescence by Denver Grenell-- Very real, very unique. The stoners here are super believable. Denver clearly has a gift for creating likable, fun, realistic and relatable characters!
