Midnight Syndicate guest stars in new horror fiction

 

Over the years, the band has been contacted by fellow artists who enjoy listening to the music while working on their own creations. Several of the artists that have contacted us over the past year are featured at Legions of the Night. Recently, two authors have incorporated Midnight Syndicate into their stories.

Reminiscent of the old Kiss comic books, the first is Phantom Music Box, one of the latest in Chris Cantrell's Asylumantics comic book series. In this story, an ancient music box has been discovered that is rumored to have the power to control the dead. Supernatural artifact collectors Midnight Syndicate are in a race against time to retrieve the box before it falls into the wrong hands.

Have you ever wondered what would happen if a zombie was bitten by a vampire? Can jinn and demons make zombies? Why is Midnight Syndicate playing a vampyre club and why does a zombie attack during their first set? The answers to these questions and more can be found in Empty Graves a very original and entertaining collection of zombie-themed short stories for fans of the undead. The book, written by Murphy's Lore's Patrick Thomas, is now on sale at Amazon.
