A Tree Lighting in Deathlehem: An Anthology of Holiday Horrors for Charity Kindle Edition
In Deathlehem, the masses hail
The Blessed one was born
They gathered in a manger
On that black December morn
Among the screams of Mother Mary
The Babe from her torn
Dark tidings corrupting hope and joy
So rest merry gentlemen
Let Satan’s child play
Burning bodies light this Christmas tree
In Deathlehem today
Welcome back, folks. And for you newbies wondering where you are,
that would be Deathlehem…
…where enemies meet on the battlefield to set aside their differences
on this holiest of nights—only to be tormented by a legendary she-demon…
…where irons bars won't keep brothers from spending Christmas
with their mother—much to her dismay…
…where the search for the perfect tree turns into a bloody nightmare…
…where an imprisoned evil has a young couple and their daughter wishing
they'd stayed at home for the holidays…
Twenty-five more tales of holiday horror to benefit
The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation

- Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2022Am not adding photos because the pictures don't show what your hands do. Have this book in eform, purchased a paper copy for a gift and it made me sad. The spine is damaged, it looks like water got between the cover and the pages, and will return it for a hopeful better copy. Oddly, it looks like a book from a used book store. Not impressed.. Thankfully, the shipping errors have nothing to do with GSP and their work is very good. There are always great authors chosen for these anthologies and every Scrooge or horror fan needs this series at hand!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2020A dovishly fun book to read no matter what the season. The stories were well written with many unique story lines; A couple trying to poach a Christmas Tree after hours, a daughter of man's girlfriend fear the elves that visit her every Christmas. One story is better than the next. If you like poor stories, this book is a must.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2021Tommy bloody bones really stood for me. Not the only great story for sure I enjoyed them all this one just popped in my head (not an aneurysm don't worry) please add more! Im properly addicted.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2022It was a sweet little Christmas themed anthology. Don’t think of such things as Jingle Bells, mistletoe and the jolly, fat man. Think of blood, death and demons!
Some favorites for me -
Silver and Straw
Bloody Bones
Away in a Manger
The Vices and Virtues of Gideon Thomas
