Praise for Savage Beasts
“The tales in Savage Beasts are as varied as their inspirations. Many of the contributors don’t just use music as their muse, they place it front and centre in their narratives. Here, music has the power to save and to kill, and nothing buried in the past stays buried forever, regardless of how frightening it is.” – Rue Morgue
“Few ever get into the territory as Grey Matter Press’ Savage Beasts, which derives its scary stories under the guiding light of macabre music. And luckily, Savage Beasts has the talent behind it to rock into your nightmares.” – Fangoria
“Each tale within Savage Beasts is diverse and unique. This collection tweaks the psychological phenomenon and depicts the fantasy side of our imaginations, where the darkest recesses of our minds go when listening to our favorite songs. Savage Beasts is often poetic, primal, speculative and boldly crossing the lines of splatterpunk fiction.” – Dave Gammon, Horror News
Proudly presented by Grey Matter Press, the multiple Bram Stoker Award-nominated independent publisher.
