Purchase In the Memory House:
Nick Gillingham knew moving before his senior year would suck... but he
never imagined a nightmare like Broughton’s Hollow. It’s bad enough Nick
hears disembodied voices after moving near “the House”—a crumbling
relic with a sinister past. But then the local football team decides to
make him their new tackling dummy, the queen of the school starts
manipulating him for her own nefarious purposes, and his parents’
marriage falls apart.
When Nick’s elderly neighbor hints whatever lurks within “the House” might be the cause of his troubles, he sets out to uncover the truth behind the local Indian legend of the “Eating Monster.” Nick will to have to rely on a band of social outcasts from school—and his loony kid sister—to put his life and family back together again. But even if he survives a close encounter with “the House,” Nick will still need to find a date for the homecoming dance.
"The quaint new-kid-in-town core of The House Eaters is only a ruse. Polson lures us in with this charming detail only to slam the door behind us, turn out the lights and watch us tremble in the dark. Brilliantly paced, The House Eaters turns the haunted house concept on its head with a style and brilliant cast of characters rarely found in today's dark fiction. The House Eaters is a treat for the young adult audience and horror aficionados alike." - Barry Napier, author of Masks of Our Fathers
"Check your doors, and when you're satisfied that you have neither too many nor too few, allow Aaron Polson to tell you the nightmarish tale he has weaved around a Native American legend." - Cate Gardner, author of Strange Men in Pinstripe Suits and Other Curious Things

While cruising a dark country road late one Saturday night, five high
school friends accidentally kill an old drunk. Hiding the body is easy.
Lying about what happened is even easier. But lies have a way of
breeding Monsters in Springdale, Kansas, and the Monsters have come to
play.
Purchase We are the Monsters:
After months of silence from the H&P Lumber and Pulp logging camp,
strange raving madmen have wandered out of the woods near the Lewis
River. Civil War veteran Henry Barlow hasn’t carried a gun since his
wife’s brutal murder, a memory he drowns nightly with bourbon and
whiskey. When reports of the strange goings on at the Lewis River camp
reach H&P, they send Barlow and a small band of armed mercenaries
upriver to investigate. As the days pass and things get stranger,
Barlow must confront the phantoms of his past, his alcoholism, and the
dark hearts of men perverted by power and greed. Most of all, he must
find a will to live in order for he and his team to get out of the woods
alive.
