But be forewarned, for even though you may be cuddled up nice and warm inside your house, these stories will hold elements of horror, revenge, love, justice, violence and suspense. Behold nice splashes of Erb for your reading pleasure…Just remember that not all things are as they appear and perception is not always to be trusted.
