A Note about CAMPUS CHILLS
In October 2008 Titles Bookstore at McMaster University held a “Haunted McMaster” event featuring 10 horror authors doing readings as well as free custom ghost walks of the McMaster campus performed by the folks from Haunted Hamilton. It was a smashing success and something we knew we would do again in 2009.
But in 2009, we wanted it to be bigger. So, since Titles Bookstore owns an Espresso Book Machine, as do the University of Alberta and University of Waterloo bookstores, we thought it would be interesting to see if we could invest some resources into producing an original anthology of horror fiction. Thus the theme of Campus Chills was born.
The book has since been rolled out through worldwide POD distribution and is available in print through all major retailers and eBook versions are now also available.
It was an intriuging experiment in publishing that has been an absolute thrill. And I'm glad to have been able to share the story I co-authored for it here on Wattpad.
CAMPUS CHILLS DESCRIPTION
Prepare to have your blood run cold, your heart race and your brow bead with sweat: this anthology of horror stories ranges from the starkly terrifying to the tantalizingly creepy. There's magic mixed in with the chalk dust, evil lurking in the textbooks, malevolence biding its time in the labs and perhaps something even more horrifying in the student cafeteria.
Chilling tales born from the dark shadows of campuses across Canada. Edited by Mark Leslie and introduced by Robert J. Sawyer, Campus Chills features thirteen all original tales of terror by Kelley Armstrong, Julie E. Czerneda, Kimberly Foottit, James Alan Gardner, Sephera Giron, Michael Kelly, Nancy Kilpatrick, Susie Moloney, Douglas Smith, Brit Trogen, Edo van Belkom, Steve Vernon and Carol Weekes.
