The Three Devils: And Other Stories

We rated this book:

$24.95


So much literature in the horror genre comes from common fears of the day. That might be why The Three Devils by William Luvaas has such an eerie and chilling feeling. From climate change to pandemic lockdowns to the actions of the greedy, these are the things that we have to live through, and it is no coincidence that these are the same themes that Luvaas uses to frighten his readers.

The Three Devils is a collection of five short stories by William Luvaas. To say these tales are dark and gritty would be an understatement. But beyond merely throwing his audience into a panic, Luvaas challenges his reader to look deeper at our own experiences of the recent past and some troubles of today. Even though his tales are set in a post-apocalyptic future, they have a very current feel, making them much more unsettling.

Luvaas is a master of dark and gritty without getting graphic. Fans of psychological horror with dark situations and events will find stories that go beyond terror and engage the reader in ways most horror writers can’t.
