    About this ebook

    Everyone dies. It's the morbid curiosity of when and how that makes horror so enticing.
    Once Upon a Dead Gull is a combined work of short stories and flash fiction.
    Spoiler alert: it has nothing to do with seagulls and more to do with what is real and what isn't. And as always there is a healthy dose of horror & paranormal that Hill fans have come to expect.

    Roses From Ishmael

    Ishmael thought the flowers would be a nice touch. Roses were her favorite, red roses to be exact. These were slightly black around the edges and void of fragrance, but they were roses nonetheless.

    You’re not old enough to remember when roses had a smell are you? he asked the cashier as he handed her a twenty-dollar bill.
