The Senior Girls Bayonet Drill Team and Other Stories

Dust jacket illustration by Timothy Truman.

Find out what sort of game the Senior Girls Bayonet Drill Team play.

Discover haunted toilets, strange beasts, the hungry dead, weird off-trail shops that sell unique hats and twisted dreams. Spend time with a courageous barber, meet a mythological being that may be part of all our myths, and is well-versed in the various games of shooting marbles.

Ghostly cars, ghostly hotels, a shrinking world, gorillas in the yard, a brave and industrious mouse and a less than noble elephant are also here.

If that’s not enough, meet a highly intelligent monkey with an email account who is desperate to meet his human kinfolk.

There are skull collectors, gun slinging demons, a Wendigo, a serial killer, and just to smooth things out, stories of romance. Or failed romance. Certainly, stories of new beginnings.

The usual wicked potpourri of Lansdale tales and story notes.
