About this listen
Twisted: The shadowy malevolence hidden in the most traumatized of cerebrums. The tightness of a solid knot that pushes the final breath from a doomed hangman. A word used to describe the darker, seedier side of society. The spine-tingling sound of the maniacal laugh from a creepy stranger.
From Andrew Lennon comes Twisted Shorts. Featuring a foreword from the future of horror, Michael Bray, this collection of 10 short stories delves into the darker side of society. With four unpublished stories, including "Devourer," "Slayer" and "Tears of a Clown," the words within will give you nightmares.
So what do we have? A husband who glimpses his sinister future; a man haunted by his vivid nightmares; homicidal maniacs; creatures from the deep depths of the ocean, and a bullied child who fights back. We also drop in on an auditor on the brink of insanity; a young girl haunted by her dead best friend; a surgeon on a bloody, vengeful mission; a tale of the undead, and a vengeful clown.
Sound familiar? They should, after all these people could be your neighbor, your friend, your mother, your child's teacher, your deliveryman, your gynecologist, or even you - just give it time.
Twisted Shorts - the duration is little but the memory will live long.

>"Lily?" My stomach dropped as a tall, dark-haired man stepped into view. Had he been hiding between the trees? "No. Sorry." Gulping, I took a step back. "I'm not Lily." He shook his head, a satisfied grin on his face. "No. You are Lily." "I'm Summer. You have the wrong person." For months, Summer is trapped in a cellar with the man who took her - and three other girls: Rose, Poppy, and Violet. His perfect, pure flowers. His family. But flowers can't survive long cut off from the sun, and time is running out....

Short on originality/wrap-ups
Positive: ..a few intriguing and creepy stories that had me double checking my house at night lol
Negative:.. too many 'incomplete' stories!!! It was like going into Poltergeist but then the story stops after the moving chair scene.Besides the disappointing half-stories, it was an entertaining anthology. I look forward to more COMPLETE stories by Andrew Lennon. (Robert P. Jellison is now one of my favorite narrators btw, excellent job)

Fun collection of stories!
I had a really good time listening to this collection, helped in part by a very good narrator. It definitely helped liven up my time that I was mostly doing housework.
I very much enjoy "Wtf" endings. A couple of the stories left me scratching my head at the end but that's fun, too; trying to figure out where the author wants you to go. I actually had to stop what I was doing quite a few times & just stand there listening because I was so intrigued with where the story was going.
There was some great imagination at work here. I'm interested to read some of his more current work to see how his writing style & subject matter may have evolved.
