Review # 1 was written on 2011-07-29 00:00:00 Daniel Herman Garrett Calcaterra's Umbral Visions offers up two stories that will take you to the darkest edges of your imagination. In the first story Dedrick's past sucks him into a house of horrors where he has to reach deep into his psyche to survive and come out alive. The next story has Damon's future is cast into darkness due to a freak accident. What lurks in the shadows of his mind comes on the pages he writes with a voice prompt. Fantasy turns into reality when the words from his pages lead to gristly murders inspired by his stories. It's up to his two best friends, Brad and Hayley, to save them all. Umbral, the blackest part of a shadow from which all light is cut off, makes a great title since these stories delve into the blackest parts of the characters souls. If you enjoy a journey into the dark side, this is definitely a book you will savor.

Review # 2 was written on 2011-06-30 00:00:00 Sean Bracken Umbral Visions contains two stories and is a must read for anyone who wants to be scared to death. The first story is The Key Ring. The terror begins on page one and continues long after the book is finished. I was immediately immersed into the story, trapped in the nightmare along with the main characters. I searched for a way to exit, but could only follow after them, hoping that they would lead me out. I experienced the pain and anquish firsthand. I was lead through a maze of unspeakable horror. The experience will stay with me for a very long time. The second story, The Shadow, was not as terrifying, thank God. It was more of a supernatural murder mystery. Once again, I became part of the story, wondering who might be in danger next. The characters were genuine and I felt compassion for their predicament. The ending caught me totally off guard. I can't wait to read more of Mr. Calcaterra's works. I highly recommend Umbral Visions.
