Playlist of the Damned

Music soothes the savage beast...or so they say. But in this tome of terror, music is more than just a placebo for the masses. It is the dark divination of witches, the motivation for revenge, and the power to change the mind, soul, and body of every creature unlucky enough to hear it. In it, you'll find possessed rock stars, killer radio stations, and concerts from the depths of hell. Over 300 pages of terrifying, bizarre stories about the hypnotic power of music and what happens when it gets into the wrong hands. Featuring: "Tears Like Rain," by Tim Waggoner, "The Brazen Bull," by Sofia Ajram, "Oil of Angels,' by Gemma Files, "This Loaded Gun of a Song Stuck in My Head," by Paul Michael Anderson, "Pack Up Your Sins and Go To The Devil," by Elis Montgomery, "Everybody Loves My Baby," by Mercedes M.
