Yes, this is a satire site. C. Michael Forsyth is a former senior writer for the infamous Weekly World News. That now-defunct tabloid churned out (primarily) made-up news stories before it was fashionable–and before people with political agendas gave “fake news” a dirty name. The stories were entertaining, funny (the humor deadpan and black) and sometimes thought-provoking. Many were essentially short stories or “what if?” pieces in the form of news articles. Forsyth has continued that proud tradition with original stories on this site.
C. Michael Forsyth is a Yale graduate with an MFA in film from NYU, He is the author of the graphic novel Night Cage and several novels, including the historical adventure Houdini Vs. Rasputin, the thriller The Identity Thief, the terrifying Hour of the Beast and the historical romance The Blood of Titans. To check out these books, click HERE.

I’m really not much of a horror fan – I can’t remember the last horror book I read so the whole concept was a bit odd. But the plot had some great twists and surprises. And once I got into the book, I really couldn’t put it down until I finished.
Great job- thanks.
And I must admit I now enjoy the weeky horror digest. Some of them are great.
