PREY FOR THE DEAD

I’m over here.
I can smell your fear.
You won’t be alone.
I can hear your moan.
I’ll be rising soon
On the next full moon.
I’ll rise from down under
On lightning and thunder.
You will not recognize me.
I’ll be different you see.
My new body is strong.
Now, do not get me wrong.
I still love you, my dear.
Of that, please have no fear.

AT THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT

Sunset brings shadows with the night,
Birds of prey springing into flight.
As a hue of red paints the night air,
A high-pitched howl sounds too near.
Residents hide behind locked doors,
As trails of blood seep through the floors.
The mansion rumbles with laughter,
Loud music reaches each rafter.
Gargoyles watch as quiet as a mouse,
As limousines line a path to the house.
At the harsh stroke of midnight,
Dancers freeze in the moonlight.
THE DEAD GAME
Wednesday, April 14, 2021
THE GAMES BEGIN
Metal clangs shut over the doors and windows.
Trapped in a house sealed as tight as a tomb,
Gregg must solve the computer’s complex riddles to escape.
Vampires and werewolves, sworn enemies of the night,
stare at each other as time begins to click away.
Freezing air blasts from the vents,
followed by a mechanized female voice.
“Gentleman, are you ready?” echoes around them.
Thus begins the thrilling adventure for Shana and her friends as they track The Dead from Florida’s swamplands to Quebec City.
Will Gregg escape the locked house in time to save his fiancee Linda from the rogue werewolves?
Will Shana save her boyfriend, William, from the blood curse infecting vampires, or will she succumb to her ex’s boyish charms?
A race to the finish culminates at a showdown at Quebec’s La Citadelle.
Let the better man or vampire win.
“This is a Gothic suspense/thriller that remains true to the vampire mythology while exploring fresh storylines and plot twists guaranteed to keep readers enthralled throughout. For vampire genre enthusiasts and romantic horror fans alike, The Dead at Heart by Susanne Leist is one you won’t want to miss.” – Broadway Turk Superstar, VINE VOICE
