Crazy horror story collectionPsychological Breakdown is a new short
story collection, and boy, does it deliver some serious
punches.
Overall, I really enjoyed this collection of crazy, messed up
horror stories. If you're into delving into the dark psyches of
human beings, definitely pick up a copy of Psychological Breakdown.
You won't be disappointed. If you don't own a book by Hughes, shame
on you...Reviewed by Demetrius Svette
I have been wanting to read this book for a while; actually, ever
since I read Puckered (which features Mr. Hughes and also Peter
Oliver Wonder). It was incredible storytelling that made me wonder
what else can come from these two demented minds; I wasn't let down
with this masterpiece by David Owain Hughes. Psychological
Breakdown is a masterstroke because it is compiled of a collection
of shorts that give you the insight into many different points of
the breakdown process. A state of madness dwells within us, capable
of reaching anyone at any time. A psychological breakdown. Perhaps
the darkness takes over, ushering you to the brink of holding back
the abuse or from wanting a taste of revenge. Maybe it's a
fascination of electronics that sends you into a tailspin. Then,
there are the kinky needs of sexual desires. You start to wonder if
maybe you are precariously balancing that line between 'normal' and
utter chaos. Psychological BreakdownAmazon Verified PurchaseHughes'
writing is delightfully messed up in all the best ways. Extreme to
the max and written with wit, humor and best of all, talent. He
goes there and he takes the reader with him, for every gory step of
the journey. A stand out in this genre because his ideas are unique
and this short story collection highlights that so well. If this is
your first time reading this author then this is a perfect choice
to get hooked. Every story is its own shade of shock and horror. I
highly recommend this collection and this author. Not for the faint
of heart, but for extreme horror lovers this is a treat.
