Alien: Prototype: DEADLY CARGO! Venture, a direct rival to the Weyland-Yutani Corporation, will accept any risk to crush the competition. Thus, when a corporate spy "acquires" a bizarre, leathery egg from a hijacked vessel, she takes it directly to the Venture testing facility on Jericho 3.
Though unaware of the danger it poses, the scientists there recognize their prize’s immeasurable value. Early tests reveal little, however, and they come to an inevitable conclusion. They need a human test subject…ENTER ZULA HENDRICKS!
A member of the Jericho 3 security staff, Colonial Marines veteran Zula Hendricks has been tasked with training personnel to deal with anything the treacherous planet can throw their way. Yet nothing can prepare them for the horror that appears — a creature more hideous than any Zula has encountered before. Unless stopped, it will kill every human being on the planet.
Broken Shadows: Fissures appear in the darkness. Shadows break, collapse, and crumble away to nothing, revealing that they are far more than the mere absence of light.
Shadows are our friends. Shadows protect us.
Because what lies behind the darkness is so much worse…

The Winter Box: It’s Todd and Heather’s twenty-first anniversary. A blizzard rages outside their home, but it’s far colder inside. Their marriage is falling apart, the love they once shared gone, in its place only bitter resentment. As the night wears on, strange things start to happen in their house—bad things. If they can work together, they might find a way to survive until morning…but only if they don’t open the Winter Box.

Darkness Wakes: In the small town of Ptolemy, darkness is a living thing. A powerful thing. Its home is in the shadows of a bizarre, hidden club named Penumbra, where it is worshiped by followers who need the pleasure it gives them. They are addicted to it. They live for it. And they kill for it.
When Aaron was first introduced to Penumbra, he thought it was just a secret club where members could indulge their kinkier fantasies. Bit by bit, as he learned the club’s true purpose, he began to change in subtle, horrible ways. Now it’s time for Aaron to prepare his first human sacrifice to the waiting darkness. It’s too late for him to back out now, but murder is the least of Penumbra’s sins. The true terror is still to come when… Darkness Wakes.

Returning to a place where robed men and women circle the town in an endless loop, tirelessly chanting, and where a primeval beast watches from behind the trees, hungering for more than flesh. Hungering for her.
Trinity Falls: where Lauren’s grandmother Madelyn reigns supreme. Lauren escaped her once, but Madelyn won’t let her get away again. Madelyn has a plan, and this time she intends to see it through to the bitter, bloody end.
