Description
Author C. J. Daley welcomes you to Cemetery.
Whether this is your first trip, or your return to town, get ready for ten blood-fueled nightmares. Read the stories Hudson Valley residents tell around campfires about Cemetery’s dark underbelly. While the police chase serial killers, the streets run rampant with occult, paranormal, and supernatural beings. And while on the surface these stories tell the lore of the town, don’t be surprised if you make some connections between them...
Be prepared to experience an unhinged killer clown, a blood thirty monster in the woods, sinister killer phone calls, vampires with hidden pasts, star-crossed ghost lovers, seances gone awry, a flesh hungry zombie, confinement in a basement, two best friends tackling a haunted mansion, and a shapeshifting woodland spirit.
Read now and be the first to read the next official part in Det. Williams’ story in the bonus novelette, Off with their Sleds.
**For fans of the author's previously released sample, BESTGHOST (featured within) and fans of open-ended horror stories.**
Perfect for the Halloween season
*I would like to stress for those that have yet to get to Welcome to Cemetery that these are ten stories that can be read without prior knowledge if you so please! Only the bonus novelette is a direct sequel!

Tales from Cemetery is a thrilling collection of short horror stories taking place in the New York town of Cemetery. While the town of Cemetery was originally established in Book 1, Welcome to Cemetery, readers can jump right into these short stories without having read it.
There's a fun variety of spooky themes explored in the collection. Each short story is entertaining and fun to read; some I wish were longer just because they were so interesting, "BestGhost" being a great example.
As a new reader of C.J. Daley, this book was a great introduction to his writing and I look forward to his future work!
Léa L, Reviewer
This is a fun and spooky collection of twelve short stories, perfect for the Halloween season. Some of the tales are clearly inspired by classic horror films, and those little nods were a real treat to discover.
The stories get straight to the point without unnecessary padding, but there is still enough depth to picture each scene vividly and feel immersed alongside the characters. The variety keeps the collection fresh, and there was never a moment where I felt bored or wanted to skip ahead.
A lively and entertaining anthology that captures the Halloween spirit and delivers just the right dose of chills.

✏️ Spoiler-Free ARC Review
4.5 True Rating
These 12 short stories are perfect for any horror fan who is looking for a quick read. While they don’t get too deep, they are all very entertaining and different from one another! Some made my heart race, some made me forget to breathe, and some were a great lesson in irony. Each story has a different theme and types of character, which ensured it was never boring.
Also, I loved that the characters quickly establish their personalities through the changes in writing and speech style as each story unfolds around them.
I could definitely see these being a fun series on a podcast or a radio series that plays late at night during Halloween season. There’s just something about the author’s writing style that feels like it should be a goosebumps short film or radio edit.
🖤 Thank you to author C.J. Daley, publisher BestGhost Books, and Net Galley for the digital copy. As always, my reviews are honest, my own, and voluntary!
