The Complete Creepsville Collection

Welcome to Creepsville! Only one tale in this volume takes place in the town of Creepsville. The rest are spread out, from downtown Chicago to the mountains of Honduras to an odd community chock full of morning people. Creepsville is a state of mind, not just a dot on the map. For a young slacker in "Troglodytes," Creepsville is a parallel world where a race of silent, brooding creatures coexist with humans. The breakfast cook in "Angry Eggs" feels the cold fingers of Creepsville wrap around his heart when he realizes the customers are ready to literally kill for another helping of eggs. A high school senior in Rusty Bolts" takes a field trip to Creepsville when his best friend confides that he's actually a robot. But it isn't until years later, when he learns his robot friend's real secret, that Creepsville drags him further into its sinister clutches. Also lurking within this collection of two-dozen-plus-one tales is a feline who confronts pure evil, a shapeless woman in search of identity, and the ghost of a living person. In these pages, a deadly contagion is greeted with celebration, a Divine Messenger goes on strike, and Hell is just a road trip away.
