Close Encounters of the Urban Kind

We've all heard the stories of what happens to those who go to lovers' lane and of the folly of flashing your lights at another car at night. We all know someone who knows someone that survived a meeting with Bloody Mary and another who picked up a hitchhiker that then disappeared. And we all know these stories aren't true. They're just urban legends. Right? Wrong. Sometimes the stories we hear are true. Often they're more than they seem. These are the urban legends with alien explanations and the alien encounters mistaken for urban legends. The line between one and the other is so blurred in this anthology of stories about Close Encounters of the Urban Kind that you will never look another urban legend the same way again.Contents: * I Am Sorry for Talking So Rarely to Strangers / short fiction by Alma Alexander * Racing Lights / short fiction by Erik Scott de Bie * End of Life / short story by Richard Lee Byers * Frames of Reference / short fiction by Nathan Crowder [as by Nate Crowder] * Waterheads / short fiction by Ivan Ewert * A Late Night Snack / short fiction by Robert Farnsworth * Dead Letter Drop / short fiction by Pete Kempshall * The Invitation / short fiction by Carole Johnstone * Two Out, Wendigo / short fiction by Rosemary Jones * Lollo / short fiction by Martin Livings * It Came from the Backseat / short fiction by Eric Lowther * Tea Cups & Saucers / short fiction by Ramsey Lundock * The Hippie Monster of Eel River / short fiction by Shannon Page * Mastihooba / short fiction by Joshua Palmatier * Headlights / short fiction by Jennifer Pelland * Roadkill / short fiction by Rick Silva * Green Tears on Black Velvet / short fiction by Jeff Soesbe * Gloomy Sunday / short fiction by Eddy Webb .
