Pebbleford Tales

Welcome to Pebbleford - a faded seaside town where the underpasses smell faintly of lager and regret, where hobos issue life-changing ultimatums, where depraved sleepwalkers roam the night, and where absolutely nobody should ever be trusted near an open flame.Inside these tales you'll meet beggars, burnouts, lunatics, unstable children, alleyway prophets and people whose lives have gone catastrophically wrong in ways both horrifying and strangely hilarious. Some stories are grotesque. Some are tragic. Most are deeply unsettling. All of them stare directly into the bizarre darkness lurking beneath everyday life.Equal parts black comedy, horror and fever dream, Pebbleford Tales is a collection of twisted stories filled with filth, absurdity and unexpected humanity.Step carefully into Pebbleford.You may not leave the same.
