Mental Ward: Echoes of the Past
Echoes of the Past…
In places where unspeakable atrocities occurred sometimes ‘something’ lingers, stuck between the worlds of the living and the dead. Those who believe in the grey area behind the veil will tell you that those places can become eternal cages that hold the souls of the deceased captive.
Mental Ward: Echoes of the Past is a collection of twelve such stories; tales of hauntings taking place in asylums. The places where the crazed, the insane, and sometimes the different were hidden away from society’s view.
Follow the winding path crafted by the talented, and in some cases, twisted imaginations of the storytellers who would taint your peaceful world with their echoes of the past.

All the books featured in these have sounded great! Happy Halloween! 😀
Hi Juan, thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoyed the selection of anthologies featured on this blog. Happy Halloween to you as well!! 😀
This one sounds familiar… 😉 lol An amazing antho!
This is a terrific antho! We had so many great stories for the first Mental Ward open submission call that were focused specifically on ghosts, as opposed to just the atrocities committed behind asylum walls, that we created a ‘haunted’ version. And it is fantastic! Thanks for the support, Joe, its always appreciated!! ;}
Love you, Coffin Hop, and all the themed posts! I’ll miss you! Curse you for making my TBR list a library in its own right!
Lori, thank you so much for saying that!! I won’t be going anywhere. Though I don’t have the opportunity to post as often as I’d like, you’ll still see me around. The Sirens Call eZine, and PenoftheDamned.com are the most regular places to find me. Plus I would enjoy it if you and I became Facebook friends – you can find me here https://www.facebook.com/DarcNina :]
The antho sounds like all sorts of fun ! 😊
The stories are great! 😉
