About Joel R. Hunt
Joel is a writer, librarian, ex-teacher and part-time human from the UK. He is constantly planning stories, novels and screenplays, a very small number of which actually get written. His genres of choice are horror and sci-fi, although the odd bit of sentiment does manage to sneak in between the freakishness and disturbing twists.
To date, Joel's stories have found their way into anthologies such as the Multispecies Cities (World Weaver Press), With Blood and Ash (Eerie River Publishing), and the Dark Drabbles series (Black Hare press), as well as featured on sites including EveryDayFiction.com, RuneBear.com and CreepyPasta.com.

The music of the night calls out to you…
A sinister force threatens a teenage horror fan, and only a team of B movie monsters can come to his rescue. Fear stalks a group of punks when a scarecrow proves that birds aren’t the only things it can terrorize. And all hell breaks loose when a man discovers that his next-door neighbor possesses the power to reanimate the dead…
Celebrate the music of the night with Scare Street’s latest collection of diabolical horror. Thirteen tales of paranormal horror haunt this new volume. More than enough to keep you reading long after the sun goes down.
As you turn the page, the symphony begins… A wolf howls. The wind moans. Claws tap against your door. Powerless to resist, you open the door. The music calls… And you must follow its haunting melody.
Where will it lead you? No one really knows, but one thing is certain—as you step into the mist and the world of the living fades away, one more song is about to join this medley of fear.
Your own terrified scream…

Travel through the universe discovering the possibilities of the unknown and exploring the infinite worlds of the future...and sometimes the past.
Twenty talented authors bring you a dynamic collection of science fiction and space epics in one amazing collection.
A cadet onboard her colony’s last hope for survival must overcome her tragic loss and endure the extremities of cargo hauling in Deep Space, or suffer the same fate as her unlucky crewmates.
A translator on the only exploratory spacecraft funded by a reality TV show dodges the constant cameras while her crewmates grind the gossip gears. She spends the one-way trip piecing together the secret of their destination and finds more than the answer to her life-long search for belonging.
Earth is but a dire souvenir for those old enough to remember it. When Captain Ericson's ship crashed on an unknown planet, seemingly sharing the same properties as Earth, he thinks he has made the greatest discovery of all time: a new home to mankind. That is until the planet reveals its darkest secrets.
Cybernetically enhanced trooper Dared Locke (codename Dreadlock) and his team are sent in to bring a known terrorist leader and xeno-biologist Professor to justice, but they find creatures beyond imagination that lead them to a final confrontation.
And many more.
Discover who shares the universe with us...because we're not alone...
