"Matt Drabble is nothing short of a genius when it comes to painting a picture of his characters. This novel was sensational! I started reading and couldn't stop" - LITTLE BLOG OF HORROR

"Matt Drabble hits another one out of the park! Drabble is the master of his genre, that being the genre of horror. These gritty, edge-of-your-seat thrillers are rich in terror, featuring beautifully textured character development and a melodic flow of verbiage that approaches poetry. Go grab this book and read it, post haste!" - HOGWASH

 "The stories are gruesome, terrifying, and intelligent... This is a great horror book" - ENTHRALLING DIMPLE 

"Around and around we go from twisted story to another, ramping up the tension until it all comes crashing down upon our heads. If you love horror stories too you need to check this book out." - JBRONDERBOOKREVIEWS

Blackwater Heights is a building with a long dark history, some of it is well known but more is shrouded in myth and legend. None more so than that of its founding father Horace Whisker.


Martin Parcell is an ex-journalist with shattered dreams of an author's career. Sidelined through a car crash's injuries, he finds himself forced through governmental austerity measures having to take a custodians position at a private mental health hospital. A writer with undoubted talent, but an author without a story.


He begins his new job deep in depression and drowning under waves of his lost dreams. On his first night he meets Jimmy, his elderly supervisor who has spent most of his life within the hospital walls. Jimmy is nearing retirement age and desperate to rest his weary bones. Jimmy offers Martin a way out for both of them, access to the background histories and stories of the hospital's patients.


A collection of 13 tales from the darkly disturbed minds of the 

residents of Blackwater Heights.
