Aberrations
Made for "about the cost of the average funeral," comes an all new batch of supernatural revenge stories and conté cruels in the tradition of the original "Tales From The Crypt" and "Creepshow". Bestselling horror novelist Claire Huston (Dawn Duvurger) has a sure way of producing creepy story after story - she steals them from a dead master of the macabre using a spirit board. What follows are four stories of suspense and terror... though not without consequence. Alice (Mona Duvera) encounters an all-too familiar ventriloquist doll; Bobby (Amber Peach) knows something is watching her from within the walls of her home; a crazed sniper (Eric Spudic) uses geocaching as a lure for his victim (Krystal Stevenson Akin); and a man (J.C. Pennylegion) attempts to resurrect his dead wife, brought to him by two grave robbers (Denman Powers, Kirk Jordan).
