Did you ever hear about the Thanksgiving killer? No? Shawn will wish he hadn't listened to his friend Ricky's story of the killer. They are going to really wish they hadn't gone to the house where the killer grew up. There is nothing like a slasher story to get you in the holiday mood. Vaughn once again delivers a great short story that should be on everyone's holiday horror reading list. Definitely check it out. 5 severed fingers out of 5

Looking for a tasty little blood drenched treat for Thanksgiving? Look no further because Vaughn has you covered. Stoner friends Ricky and Shawn discuss the story of possible urban legend The Thanksgiving Day Killer and decide to go visit the house he grew up in. The killer is supposed to be dead anyway, so what could it hurt? Well, you’ll have to read the book and find out. Vaughn writes some of the best savagely brutal and creative kill scenes I’ve ever read. I love that he does not hold back. Blood, sex, gore, you name it and you’ll find it here. I had so much fun reading this. If you love extreme horror go grab a copy now!
