Antony Bennett's first published story appeared in the collection "Nightmares 3" after encouragement from the wonderful editor Mary Danby, and after that his stories have appeared in many magazines - Fear, Xenos, Not One of Us, etc.
His stories vary from the spooky to the downright gruesome, but they all explore how ordinary people react to extraordinary situations.
