"Hanson leaves no doubt that—his neo-Victorian sensibilities notwithstanding—he is a contemporary poet of darkness..."
-- Dr. Michael R. Collings, American author, poet, literary critic, and bibliographer
There is a quality to the darkest of dreams, not unlike that of a frightening and disturbing poem. Each bleeds fear, breathes mystery, and allows us to see our nightmares with a secret eye. Words and verses of eerie poetry are like dark blood cells that pump through the macabre heart of poet Michael H. Hanson. To open his strange tomes are to hop onto a weird twilight bus, a vehicle capable of driving through humanity’s dreads and terrors.
'When The Night Owl Screams,' offers up Six delightfully creepy black and white illustrations by artist Chris Mars (whose artwork also graces the cover) that kick off each of this poetry anthology's six chapters, as well as 105 chilling poems by Michael that worm their way through the fever dreams staining your subconscious. Remember… you were warned.
