How to Recognize a Demon Has Become Your Friend collects horror and science fiction short stories and poetry into one loaded volume. The pieces are one to three pages for the most part, with a few longer stories mixed into the bunch.

There are demons, ghosts, aliens, giant beasts, zombies, dark magic spells, and other things to haunt your nightmares.

I love the poetry and short stories in this. I was mostly expecting supernatural horror, but there was sci-fi and some comedic horror.
My favorite poems "How to Recognize a Demon has become your Friend" and "How to Recognize your Friend has become a Demon" and my favorite stories were "The Power", "Milez to Go", "369 Gates of Hell', and "Boo".
