Hello there little monsters!
Our beloved people from Horror Channel are organising a competition on their website and the prize are these two novellas from Hammer: "Hands of the Ripper" and "X The Unknown".
Here are the summaries if you want to know what they're about!
Hands of the Ripper
Recently widowed psychology lecturer John Pritchard visits spiritualist Aida Golding with his son. He is drawn to a troubled young woman who is trying to contact her child. One night during an intimate seance the lights go out and one of the group is brutally murdered. John has his suspicions but he can't prove anything. He senses that Aida has some hold over the girl and he offers her a place of refuge in his home. All too soon John realises he's made a terrible mistake...
X the Unknown
A huge crack has appeared in the earth's surface. And people are dying. Incinerated beyond recognition. At the same time, hospitals have noticed an increase in catastrophically deformed foetuses, and cancer levels are soaring. Dr Adam Royston, a scientist working at the nearby military base, thinks he knows what it is; a creature as old as the earth that slumbers for centuries, feeding on the energy and radiation produced by humans when he wakes.
Interested? Then join the competition here , you just need to answer one question and you have until the 8th of August.
Best of luck, little creatures from the underworld!
