On 28th October I shall be celebrating the third anniversary of my short, supernatural, story collection, The Book of Apparitions, with the release of a second edition. As well as revamping the original seventeen stories, I have added three new spooky stories to the collection. I have finished designing the new front cover. Now the excitement can begin, 😁😁😁🎉 #newbook #bookrelease #firesofbeltaine #newbookexcerpt #newnovel #newbookdrop #newhorrrorstory #suspense #supernatural #NickAdigBurke #mynewbook #secondedion #supernaturalbooks #shortstorycollection #shortstories #bookofapparitiona #ghoststories #ghosts #creeptales #halloween #halloween2022 #newstories #halloweenstories #creepy #spooky #scarystories (at Manchester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj0uAUyKJ-P/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

From my position on the green, the kids seemed normal, all caught in the distraction of their youth. But as I edged nearer I noticed how freakishly odd they appeared – their heads. Their heads were huge, and their foreheads wide and round, giving them a balloon-like appearance, a condition worsened by their receding hairlines and chins, which apologetically descended from their feeble underdeveloped jaws and wide mouths. And when they laughed and grinned, many teeth, tiny and white, appeared in those mouths, too many teeth for a human to have, or so I thought. And when they turned to look at me, they did so without blinking their large black, watery eyes. Eyes that gave them such a fishlike look... … Soon all the kids were aware of my presence - more large, black, watery eyes locked upon me, but with a sense of childlike curiosity, as opposed to any malicious intent. They began to whisper and point, and giggle, huddling into one another to do so. I guessed that visitors to Invermore were infrequent, given their hyper-sense of curiosity. Despite their inquisitive nature, the children seemed timid, reminiscent of baby deer, displaying the same cervine reluctance to venture nearer to their perception of danger. But, eventually they did edge closer, so slowly, however that it hardly seemed as though they were moving at all. #newbook #bookrelease #firesofbeltaine #newbookexcerpt #newnovel #newbookdrop #newhorrrorstory #suspense #supernatural #NickAdigBurke #mynewbook #occult #coolstuff #bookexcerpt #newwriting #inspirationalquotes #findingpeace #searchforhappiness #scottishstories #nuclearwar #nuclearweapons https://www.instagram.com/p/CjD2FT8qWZb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Not long now to the release of my new book, Fires of Beltaine. Avaliable from Amazon stores from 30 September. "With the world on the brink of nuclear Armageddon, a young man flees London for the remote Scottish island of Invermore. But when he experiences the savagery of the fishlike natives he realises why outsiders never venture there."

When a young traveller meets the grizzled and eccentric Frank McTavish, his life changes forever... But will it be for the better? Excerpt from, "Fires of Beltaine" my new horror novelette, release date 30 September 2022. Pre-sale details, coming soon... "In my deep scrutiny of him, he turned to me and randomly muttered, 'when one life ends, another life begins. That is the beauty of adventure. Adventure will be the chrysalis from which the new you is born. You see. I know you see, laddie. How can you ever be as you once were, when you experience something so miraculous. After all, we are nothing but the sum total of our Life's experiences...'" #newbook #bookrelease #firesofbeltaine #newbookexcerpt #newnovel #newbookdrop #newhorrrorstory #suspense #supernatural #NickAdigBurke #mynewbook (at Holmfirth) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch-HNKnKXjj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
