Waiting for the Night

Waiting for the Night is a short story collection with 12 terror tales featuring vampires, werewolves, ghosts, and skinwalkers written by Michael McCarty & Terrie Leigh RelfIn the tale "Red Rain," it's raining in Iowa. There is nothing unusual about a deluge in the Hawkeye State, except this time the rain is as red as blood, and if a raindrop lands on your skin, the flesh is eaten away. The small town of Park View is stranded from the outside world and the red rain cuts off all communication from the rest of the world. Cell phones, landlines, and the internet all stop working. Then the power. It seems like doom. It seems like the end of the world. But then the rain stops and a sinister red fog creeps into town, and that is when the real terror begins. Stand-up comedians, bikers, pest control technicians, convenience store clerks, a retired wrestler, moms, students, and others try to survive the night from the red rain.
