Allied Zombies for Peace
Zombies vs. the KKK: The darkest hour in undead civil rights history.
“Allied Zombies for Peace” covers the violent 42-minute time period that took place on November 11th, 1968, known as the Veterans Day Parade Massacre. This report outlines, according to eyewitnesses, the events that mark that day as a black stain on undead civil rights history.
Violence explodes when a shot is fired during the 1968 Veterans Day Parade in Columbus, Ohio. Not knowing who pulled the trigger, rivaling factions, The Allied Zombies for Peace and The Ku Klux Klan, turn on each other in a vicious flurry of urban combat. Other groups join the fight, including the Vietnam War veterans, a peace-loving group of hippies who call themselves the New Revolutionaries for Peace and Love, and veterans of World War I.

Rednecks, beer, guns, and monsters--deer season--with teeth.
DePalma Beach, Montana, a peaceful lake community, boasts a five-star rating in any tour travel guide.
But monster hunter isn’t in the job description when Kurt McCammus, Los Angeles homicide detective, leaves the big city and all its violence behind to take a job as chief of police in DePalma Beach. He falls in love with the clean air and peaceful community.
That is until a local rancher finds 50 head of sheep mutilated on his spread. The people of DePalma Beach turn to superstitions, believing that monsters have caused the mutilations. Chupacabras, bigfoot, aliens, werewolves, and wendigos all make the suspect list. Kurt must get to the bottom of the mutilations while keeping the good ol’ boys of DePalma Beach from hitting the woods all liquored up for a monster hunt.
The pressure escalates when bodies begin to pile up. As Kurt investigates the murders, even his sense of reason wavers. Could it be true that DePalma Beach is crawling with monsters?

Twana Burch stood back in the crowd, unable to elbow her way any closer. She could barely see the top of his head, crowned with magnificent, chestnut hair.
