About ROGUES GALLERY
ROGUES GALLERY is a modern horror anthology inspired by classics of the genre. Like its predecessors such as Night Gallery and Tales from the Crypt, ROGUES GALLERY presents darkly humorous character-driven stories of the supernatural. Emotionally compelling with unexpected, horrifying twists, each of the stand-alone tales centers on a particular member of a mysteriously related group. These renowned characters, whose super wealth, fame, power or scandalous reputation makes them objects of fascination, all have their own secrets to hide. One thing is for sure...The only thing you don't EVER want to do is get their attention.
