Horror Stories by William Erik Riker

Welcome to the bleak landscape that is William Erik Riker's storefront. Here you will be able to purchase the writer's collection of five weird tales, Descending Darkness, including the novella "Motel Grim". The first story in the collection is "The Creaking Stair," about the discovery of an old diary, and the rekindling of an occult obsession. Next comes "Religion," in which a drifter-turned-preacher worships gods that squirm beneath the earth's surface. "Descending Darkness" is a short novella which deals with the corruption and destruction of a mountain town, and one man's struggle against the darkness. "Blockhead" is a brutal tale of sadism and retribution. The collection is capped off by "Motel Grim", a novella about an inter-dimensional struggle in an isolated motel in the mountains of North Carolina. Enjoy!
