Hello blogger’s ..
I decided to start my post today with a odd story for your entertainment. Keep in mind this is all real~
Weird News
A 95-year-old Chinese woman, thought to be dead and placed in a coffin, terrified her family and neighbors by climbing right out after six long days. Must have scared the living daylights out of her neighbor Mr. Qingwang, who was the first to discover the empty coffin.
Ms. Xiufeng lives alone in her home in China’s Guangxi Province. She had recently suffered a head injury, and Mr. Qingwang found her motionless one morning when he went to give her breakfast. “No matter how hard I pushed her and caller her name, she had no reactions,” he said. “I felt something was wrong, so I tried her breath, and she has gone but her body was still warm.” So believing her to be dead, Mr. Qingwang and his son made funeral preparations, placing the old woman’s body in a coffin. Fortunately, in Chinese tradition the coffin is retained for several days, until family and friends pay their respects. Also, he chose not to nail the box shut until the day of burial.So a day before the funeral, the box was discovered empty, and the corpse was gone. Alarmed, they searched for the missing body everywhere, and where do they discover Ms. Xiufeng? In the kitchen, cooking herself a meal. Now if it were me, I would have run for my life if I saw a corpse cooking food. But no, turns out she hadn’t died at all. According to a county hospital, what she suffered was an artificial death – where the person doesn’t breathe but the body is still warm. It’s a good thing that coffin wasn’t nailed shut. But unfortunately for Ms. Xuifeng, she is left with nothing now. All her possessions were burnt according to the Chinese tradition for the dead. I don’t suppose she’s complaining, though.
Here is a book cover that was really freaking scary …Check out I give it 5 stars just for the art of the cover.
Apocrypha Sequence: Deviance
Explore the darkness within the human heart ... Set foot inside the morgue at Stratton Memorial Hospital, a place where the scales of life and death have tipped in the wrong direction, and wander the city beyond, where fantasies of sex, drugs, and violence can become frighteningly real. Redemption may be found under a scalpel, in an alley, or sometimes, by embracing the darkest corner of the soul.
The Apocrypha Sequence is a series of dark fantasy collections with interwoven themes and interconnected stories from Shane Jiraiya Cummings, Australia's master of the macabre. Also in the Apocrypha Sequence: Divinity, Inferno, and Insanity.
Now I have been searching for some Zombie titles to read. I discovered a series that I cant believe that I didn’t see it sooner.
Called Zombie Fallout by Mark Turfo .
Bk.1
Zombie Fallout It was a flu season like no other. With fears of contracting the H1N1 virus running rampant throughout the country, people lined up in droves to try an attain one of the coveted vaccines. What was not known, was the effect this largely untested, rushed to market, inoculation was to have on the unsuspecting throngs. Within days, feverish folk throughout the country, convulsed, collapsed and died, only to be re-born. With a taste for brains, blood and bodies, these modern day zombies scoured the lands for their next meal. Overnight the country became a killing ground for the hordes of zombies that ravaged the land. This is the story of Michael Talbot, his family and his friends. This is their story a band of ordinary people just trying to get by in these extra-ordinary times. When disaster strikes, Mike a self-proclaimed survivalist, does his best to ensure the safety and security of those he cares for. Book 1 - Of the Zombie Fall-Out Trilogy, follows our lead character in his self-deprecating, sarcastic best. What he encounters along the way leads him down a long dark road always skirting on the edge of insanity. Can he keep his family safe? Can he discover the secret behind Tommy's powers? Can he save anyone from the zombie Queen? - A zombie that seems by all accounts to have some sort of hold over the zombies and Mike himself. Encircled in a seemingly safe haven called Little Turtle, Mike and his family together with the remnants of a tattered community while not fighting each other, fight against a relentless, ruthless, unstoppable force. This last bastion of civilization has made its final stand. God help them all.
