Anyone who’s spent a considerable time on the road knows that strange things can happen in the desolate, empty spaces between towns and cities—especially at night. One would suspect that career long-distance truckers would have a plethora of bizarre experiences from the road to share. Now, a crew of creative minds has imagined some truly nerve-shredding scenarios in 18 Wheels of Science Fiction – A Long Haul into The Fantastic.
The sequel to 18 Wheels of Horror, produced by Big Time Books, 18 Wheels of Science Fiction takes a turn into truly paranormal territories. Here’s the full scoop from yesterday’s press release:
