Patches’ Dreams & Nightmares

Shadows, Secrets, and the Thin Veil Between Worlds

In this chilling collection of short fiction, the line between the living and the dead is terrifyingly fragile. From the jazz-soaked streets of New Orleans to the sterile quiet of a corporate office, ancient forces are waking up—and they are hungry.

Journey into the heart of Mardi Gras, where a photographer searching for her missing uncle discovers a legend that feeds on grief. Witness the horrific cost of perfection as a woman’s desire for a new body unlocks a dormant, predatory DNA. And in a crumbling Victorian home, watch as a skeptical lawyer learns that his inheritance of three strange cats carries a three-thousand-year-old responsibility.

Whether it is a husband trapping himself in the afterlife through origami hearts, or a construction crew unearthing a hive of horrors beneath a sacred grove, these stories explore the darkness that waits when we refuse to let go.

The doors are open. The spirits are listening. Are you ready to see what looks back?
