A Splash of Crimson

    Strange and Scary Stories

    “I loved every story in this collection!”—Amanda Stuntz, author of New Hope

    Jackson Arthur’s A Splash of Crimson is a thrilling collection of seven strange tales filled with creeping dread.

    A young couple on the brink of a breakup is drawn to an empty church, where they must confront the darkness within. When June King attempts suicide, she discovers a strange and impossible door, leading to unimaginable horrors. A single father will stop at nothing to save his dying daughter, even if it means making a deal with a mysterious young man.

    In these stories and others, life and death are black and white. But what exists between is a splash of crimson.

    About the Author: Jackson Arthur

    After being brutally mauled by a dog as a toddler, Jackson Arthur grew up with a stutter, which caused him to be socially awkward. Instead of interacting with people, he chose to hide his nose in books, causing him to fall in love with fiction. At an early age, he began reading Goosebumps and Fear Street, before graduating to more adult novels, like The Stand and The Green Mile. His love of strange stories blossomed into the desire to creep people out with his own brand of weird tales.
