Into Hell Kindle Edition

by James Roy Daley (Author), Books of the Dead (Editor) Format: Kindle Edition
3.4 out of 5 stars 42 ratings
AN AMAZON BESTSELLING HORROR TITLE.

Stephenie Page and her daughter Carrie are driving down an empty highway. They pull off the road at a gas station that has a restaurant attached to it. Carrie enters the restaurant in need of a bathroom. A moment later, when Stephenie steps inside the building, she discovers that the restaurant has become a slaughterhouse. There are dead bodies everywhere, most of which have been chopped apart with an axe. And the worse part of it is: her daughter Carrie is suddenly missing.

"James Roy Daley spins a deeply disturbing horror yarn that is truly unnerving. A quick pitstop at a diner leads to a trip to hell. Very scary, very well-written, wicked fun." ~ New York Times Bestselling Author, Jonathan Maberry

"James Roy Daley spins a deeply disturbing horror yarn that is truly unnerving. A quick pitstop at a diner leads to a trip to hell. Very scary, very well-written, wicked fun." ~ New York Times Bestselling Author, Jonathan Maberry
"Into Hell is one of those treasures that really knocks Stephen King from his throne. I'm not kidding. The impressive thing is, Daley can do this without inventing new monsters. Daley throws you, the reader, into an uncanny valley where even the bad guys aren't comfortable and in control. This Canuck has crafted a world so terrible that you can once again fear Ol' Scratch. Canada doesn't mess around. With punk rock they spawned Dayglo Abortions and with literature they present James Roy Daley. Six hundred sixty-six stars." ~ M.C. O'Neill, Royal Manaball

From the Back Cover

What do you do when the dead open their eyes?

Meet Stephenie Paige. She finds herself trapped in Hell. Not metaphorically, but physically. It's the only thing that makes sense.

Meet Carrie, Stephenie's daughter; she's five years old and cute as a button. And when she tells her mom that she needs the bathroom, her mom says, "No problem. I'll pull the car off the road at the next available place."

Welcome to King's Diner, the gateway to eternal suffering.

Carrie enters the restaurant while Stephenie has her hands full at the gas pump. But the pump isn't working, and the attendant is nowhere to be found. So she steps inside the restaurant...
...and discovers a slaughterhouse. The customers are dead; the staff are dead too. Twenty-odd people, chopped apart with an axe. There's blood everywhere.

Worse still... Carrie is suddenly missing.


From the author of THE DEAD PARADE, 13 DROPS OF BLOOD, and TERROR TOWN, comes more hardcore horror for those that like their fiction to be ultra-scary...

    5.0 out of 5 stars A "HELL" OF A RIDE!!!!!
    Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2011

    I read so much horror that generally falls into the "so-so" category, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this to be an engrossing, original story, that genuinely creeped me out. You empathize with the main characters' plight, and you are drawn into the story immediately. The story itself in summation goes like this- recently widowed Stephenie begins her story in a police interrogation room after something subsequently gruesome went down in which she is being blamed. She then proceeds to tell her side of the story in which she and her young daughter somehow slipped through some time/space rip into hell when they stopped for gas and are now trapped there and forced to re-live a new creative emotional/physical/psychological terror each time Stephenie dies from the previous torture...and so on for ETERNITY. Throughout the story you question Stephenie's sanity, you cringe at author's creative twisted vision of "Hell", and if Stephenie is telling the truth then you are horrified at her predicament and the fact no one would EVER believe you...All and all a great horror story, totally add it to your summer read list for an engrossing frightening vision of what hell might be like...

    2.0 out of 5 stars Well...

    I bought this book because it was somewhat long (long enough to entertain me and well worth 2.99) and cheap. It sounded promising (I love zombies) and I was excited to read it. The first quarter of the book is excellent. Theres gore, danger, mystery, wtf moments. Second quarter it's getting a little dull. Halfway through, I was so bored it wasn't even entertaining anymore.

    It's not that it started exciting and declined. It's that it started exciting and NEVER STOPPED. It's great to have a book that is non stop action, when it works. This was just lots of running and running and some more running, and then some screaming, and then we're back to running. And then it just started getting cheesy. We went from~~~~~ Spoilers ~~~~~~ Her getting a pencil jammed into her ankle, to her being locked in a room with rats (oh noes)

    I can see how some people would like this book, but honestly I cant even finish it just because I'm sick of the non stop "Thrills"

    If you're looking for a book that will keep your attention with lots of amazing plot twists and turns, don't buy this book. It's not worth your time.

    It sounded promising. Woman and young daughter arrive at diner in the middle of nowhere to find the occupants all slaughtered. Intriguing yes? But the plot is completely confusing and makes no sense.

    SPOILERS!!!!

    The dead people in the diner come back to life as zombies. That's okay, I like zombies a lot, and I was going with it. But it is just relentless - the whole plot is her running from room to room being chased by the creatures.

    Then you start to realize that she must have died at some point and went to hell. I guess this is why nothing happens except she keeps getting chased and injured by the zombie creatures - hell would be repetitive and monotonous, but it doesn't make for good reading here.

    But who are the zombies? People she knew while alive? Demonic inventions? Figments of her imagination? And then, who is Blair? And the person who offered her a way out of hell - is that real? Imagined? And is her daughter dead or alive?

    And how on earth does she turn into a vampire hundreds of years before the time the book takes place? Is she still in hell? I don't think so, because she seems to enjoy being a vampire, and you're not supposed to enjoy hell, right?

    You never learn how much of the plot is really happening on what level. In some books that works. In this one, it's just frustrating. Reading it is an incredible grind. I'm a voracious reader of all types of books and love horror, but it was a real struggle to finish it and left me disappointed. I hate leaving negative reviews (this is only the 2nd I've ever left) because I'm sure the author tried very hard, and writing a book is difficult. But reading this mess is not worth your time.

    Into Hell is insane. The story is brutal, gory & ever changing. It's like going through the most intense haunted house on a speeding, dripping roller coaster. You never know when it will twist or turn. You don't know or sometimes even want to see what's around the corner. But like some horrible car crash you have to look. You just can't help it.
