Description Feast by David Vorhees


A collection of short stories that take place on different holidays over the course of the year. The collection opens with “A New Year, a New Day, a New Life.” Grant Curtis is arrested on New Year’s Day and charged with the murder of his wife Carla. In “Easter: The Resurrection,” a resurrected Kyle Gardner seeks vengeance on Pastor Brian.

“The Vengeance of Cassidy Clay” is a narrative poem that takes place on Halloween. The poem tells the story of a slave-hunter who haunts the woods long after his death and many more spine chilling tales.

Praise for Feast by David Vorhees


“Vorhees does a nice job of keeping a “theme” throughout (even as the stories change from tale to tale. This felt like one cohesive set of stories instead of a bunch of random ones thrown into a book.
The character building and storytelling were good and I thought that Vorhees was able to write short stories that felt realistic and new while also feeling “familiar”. What I mean by this is that they still feel like original stories but they don’t feel like brand new ideas. Just like some of the best horror films play on the same topics and plots – these stories benefit from good horror tropes.
If you’re a horror fan and a fan of horror short stories there’s bound to be something in this collection that’ll suit you. I enjoyed it from beginning to end and I’m glad that I had a chance to check it out.”-Brian’s Book Blog

“Most of the tales are deeply disturbing and be warned: you won’t be able to unsee them. This is a nod to the effectiveness of the author’s storytelling ability and gift for description.”-Kristine, Hall Ways Blog

“I thought each story was unique; I like the author’s writing style. I would recommend this to readers of dark fiction, if you like a little gore with your horror, and a realism that makes it stick with you after you are done. I could see giving this as a gift.”- Sarah, Quackzombie

“Mind-bending and wildly entertaining! I was hooked after the first story, and it just got better after that. The themed horror stories for each separate holiday was a new concept for me, making each story that much more riveting. The characters and scenes are well thought out and eerily relatable, which allows you to become immersed in the story. This collection of stories is a definite must read!”-Lyn Savage, Amazon

Excerpt from Feast by David Vorhees

He noticed a tiny piece of paper wrapped around one end of the long round object in the plastic egg. The item was completely wrapped in a paper towel and was wet with a red pasty substance on one end that reminded him of ketchup. As he unwound the paper towel, he stopped talking. All breath had left him. He couldn’t make a sound if he could think of something to say. He felt as if his body and brain were shutting down as he looked down at the amputated finger that was housed in the tiny plastic egg.

After a brief moment of staring silently at the finger, he began to recognize to whom it belonged. He saw the pastel blue polish on the nail and the large diamond carat engagement ring that was entwined with a white gold wedding band. He remembered the day it was put on the woman’s finger, because he served as the officiant of her wedding. He also saw this ring every day, seeing as she worked for the church as its secretary. His secretary – Stephanie Williams. This finger belonged to her, and he then remembered that she and her family were not at service today.

God, he thought. What is going on? He unfurled the piece of paper and read the note inscribed on it:

,I’m sure you saw the finger and deduced who it belonged to. Tell no one, no cops, or I will kill the whole family. But it is Easter and Easter egg hunts were my favorite when I was young, so let’s have a hunt shall we? I have placed 6 eggs all over the town, each with a clue and a surprise inside. Find the eggs, decipher the clues and find me by 5 p.m. tonight if you want the family to live. I believe that should give you about 8 hours. Good Luck.
