About this listen
Bear witness to the ghosts and dark gods of Motor City, revealed by the light of a fiery cityscape. It’s the night before Halloween and Detroit is burning in a celebration of arson and vandalism.
Devil’s Night is a unique collection of interconnected urban horror stories taking you back to October 30th, 1987. Drawing inspiration from Michigan legends such as the Nain Rouge and the Hobo Pig Lady, Lawson weaves a rich and haunting tapestry of terror and tragedy. Inside these chapters, you will find cursed vinyl records, inner-city druids, diabolical priests, and slim slivers of hope. Devil’s Night burns with Curtis M. Lawson’s signature brand of supernatural dread. This is smart psychological horror, ablaze with visceral imagery, with equal measures of heart and heartache.

First they feasted on farm animals. Then they found humans.... A little girl was dead, attacked, and mutilated by some things, creatures of nightmare that were spreading outward like the Black Death, stripping the entire town bare of life. The death toll mounted, with bodies maimed or ripped to shreds, and thousands cowered in the shadows, hiding fearfully from the death out of the skies, the millions of sucking probosci eagerly reaching out for the attack.

Four girls lost in the big, bad woods. Four girls hunted by primeval monsters. Four girls trapped in a deadly, ancient ritual of sacrifice. To stay alive until dawn will mean using every scrap of instinct and skill they possess. Civilization no longer exists for them. They must become just as bloodthirsty and predatory as the creatures that stalk them.

Thomas Ligotti’s debut collection, Songs of a Dead Dreamer, and his second, Grimscribe, permanently inscribed a new name in the pantheon of horror fiction. Influenced by the strange terrors of Lovecraft and Poe and by the brutal absurdity of Kafka, Ligotti eschews cheap, gory thrills for his own brand of horror, which shocks at the deepest, existential, levels.

Four brand-new horror novellas all about books, stories, manuscripts—the written word has never had sharper teeth. In The Skin of Her Teeth, a cursed novel drives people to their deaths.

Three low-income families have been given a handsome retainer to join Geraldine Borden for a day at her cliffside estate. All the parents must do to collect the rest of their money is allow their children to test out the revolutionary playground equipment Geraldine has been working on for decades. But there’s a reason the structures in the bowels of her gothic castle have taken so long to develop—they were never meant to see the light of day.

As Nicky Hector—the unstoppable slasher from the Lunatic horror movie franchise—Jonathan Zain reached levels of fame once unimaginable to a young actor. On top of headlining fifteen films, he appeared on MTV, had his own 976 number, and became one of the most recognizable faces of the 1980s. But that was thirty years ago. Now it’s 2010, and Zain is a has-been celebrity making his living signing autographs at fan conventions, a relic of the bygone slasher movie boom.

Neighbors claim she’s running from bill collectors, but Charlie suspects something more sinister is afoot.

Welcome to Haver-Towne. The sedate colonial resort is the perfect place where Stew Fanshawe can get away from it all for a while. But instead finding tranquility and self-reflection, Stew finds something much more unique: a town that was once steeped in a quagmire of witchcraft, satanic debauchery, and centuries-old occult science. Indeed, Haver-Towne has a most colorful history: A warlock who sires children with his own daughter. A witch whose sheer diabolism staggers even the most demented. And a 300-year-old mansion in whose walls are embalmed the infernal secret of...Witch-Water.

High up on the windswept cliffs of Pale Peak, Faye and Felix celebrate their new engagement. But soon, a chorus of ghastly noises erupts from the nearby woods: the screams of animals, the cries of children, and the mad babble of a hundred mournful voices. A dark figure looms near the windows in the dead of night, whispering to Faye. As the weather turns deadly, Felix discovers that his terrified fiancée isn't just mumbling in her sleep—she's whispering back.

It's said he raised the dead at the age of 10, stole the Philosopher's Stone in Vegas back in 1999, and survived the bloodsucking kiss of the Mosquito Queen. Wise in the hidden ways of the night, he's also a cynical bastard who stopped thinking of himself as the good guy a long time ago.

Matt Hollis is the current wielder of the holy weapon, DÄMOREN. With it, he stalks and destroys demons. A secret society called the VALDUCANS has taken an interest in Matt's activities. They see him as a reckless rogue - little more than a "cowboy" corrupted by a monster - and a potential threat to their ancient order. As knights and their sentient weapons begin dying, Matt teams up with other hunters of his kind such as LUIZA, a woman with a conquistador blade; ALLAN, an Englishman with an Egyptian khopesh; MALCOLM, a voodoo priest with a sanctified machete; and TAKAIRA, a naginata-swinging Samurai.

Matt Hollis is the current wielder of the holy weapon, DÄMOREN. With it, he stalks and destroys demons. A secret society called the VALDUCANS has taken an interest in Matt's activities. They see him as a reckless rogue - little more than a "cowboy" corrupted by a monster - and a potential threat to their ancient order. As knights and their sentient weapons begin dying, Matt teams up with other hunters of his kind such as LUIZA, a woman with a conquistador blade; ALLAN, an Englishman with an Egyptian khopesh; MALCOLM, a voodoo priest with a sanctified machete; and TAKAIRA, a naginata-swinging Samurai.

Sixteen-year-old trans boy Benji is on the run from the cult that raised him—the fundamentalist sect that unleashed Armageddon and decimated the world’s population. Desperately, he searches for a place where the cult can’t get their hands on him, or more importantly, on the bioweapon they infected him with. But when cornered by monsters born from the destruction, Benji is rescued by a group of teens from the local Acheson LGBTQ+ Center, affectionately known as the ALC. The ALC’s leader, Nick, is gorgeous, autistic, and a deadly shot, and he knows Benji’s darkest secret.

This book contains foul language and fouler descriptions of life as a zombie. It will offend most anyone, so proceed with caution or not at all. And be forewarned: This is not a zombie book. This is a different sort of tale. It is a story about the unfortunate, about those who did not get away. It is a human story at its rotten heart. It is the reason we can't stop obsessing about these creatures, in whom we see all too much of ourselves.

Supposedly the unintended side-effect of a botched biological terrorist attack and carried by a ubiquitous retrovirus, the Shift jump-starts dead DNA and throws the life cycle into reverse, so reborns like Donner must cope with the fact that they are not only slowly youthing toward a new childhood, but have become New York's most hated minority.

Grim & Grimy
This was a wildly entertaining collection. Rooted deep in Detroit’s own phenomena of mythology and incredibly dedicated to the atmosphere of Devil’s Night. It reminds me of. An 80s John Carpenter flick mixed with weird fiction that highlights social decline, relatable characters, and terror.

Excellent collection of horror short stories
Collection of short horror stories taking place on Devil's Night in Detroit (day before Halloween). I was not familiar with the tradition or other local legends and enjoyed how the tales included small references to make the stories feel connected.
The narration is excellent as well.

No one escapes the pig lady.
A creepy Halloween, actually Halloween eve, bundle of horror. Interconnected very dark and violent stories in Detroit. They call it Devil's night. I have never experienced such horror, but love to read about it. These stories are very descriptive and read by a very talented narrator. She really brings these stories to life. Bedtime reading/listening to guarantee nightmares. Pick this one up for your fall reading.
I was gifted an Audible version of this book from the author through Story Origin.

Does for Detroit what King did for Maine
I had no idea Detroit had so much folklore attached to its troubled history and present, and these horror stories show is that monsters may exist, but they have to sneak into this world through cracks and seams we open. Lawson builds a whole world by only showing us enough - every story is gruesome, original, and relentless, but they add up to this bleak, detached panorama with roars and screams audible. Everyone’s monster story is different, but on Devil’s Night, we’re all together in being screwed.
Narrator Raquel Beattie is talented and has a great voice, but was IMO miscast here. Most of the main characters are poor, haunted tough guys, often doing terrible things just to survive literally or emotionally, while Beattie sounds very poised, smooth, and femme - you know, the audiobook voice. I’d listen to her again in a hurry but here I thought it added a level of distance and thus an additional viewpoint on the characters, when the book’s non-judgmental flatness about these “bad” people was key to its success.
StoryOrigin provided me with a free copy of the audiobook in exchange for this honest review.

DEFINITELY A KEEPER!
DEVIL'S NIGHT BY CURTIS M LAWSON AND NARRATED BY RAQUEL BEATTIE definitely hits a 10 on my weird book meter! Devils night is set in Detroit, the night before Halloween,of course. Each story in the collection is connected to every other story. If you are into the weird, Devil's night is for you. Lawson brings creepy to a whole new level with his audiobook and Raquel Beattie does an excellent job in the narration. So turn off the lights, and turn up the volume and get scared by DEVIL'S NIGHT !
