THERE'LL BE PEACE THIS CHRISTMAS - a man just wants to relax, but his family won't give him a moment of peace
SANTA'S SACK - absolutely heartbreaking; Shaw reminds readers monsters don't always have fangs or claws
SANTA'S GIFT - this story made me laugh, and I'll probably burn for it
DEAR SANTA - one of my favorites; I appreciate the perspective
THE COST OF COAL - one of Shaw's darkest stories
HE IS REAL! - frightening, with a bit of dark humor
THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS - another favorite; this is why I'm a fan of Shaw
#METOO - a horrifying description of Santa's punishment
LAST CHRISTMAS - another interesting perspective on the holiday
THE COST OF COAL (PART 2) - a sinister ending to this collection
After reading these stories, I'm afraid to ask Shaw where he gets his inspiration from. The psychological horrors within are proof he is an excellent storyteller, and his reputation for vulgarity is just a small aspect of his overall talent. Shaw had such a productive year in 2020, I can't wait to see what he does in 2021!
As always,
