The Monthly Macabre (Volume One) - The Monthly Macabre, #1

   In the silence of the night, in the middle of a desert, lies a grungy little gas station.  Though surrounded by a barren wasteland, this two-pump petrol plot is the perfect little pit stop for vacationers en route to the snowcapped mountains of Mammoth.     Inside this gas station sits a lowly attendant, gazing into the nothing and basking in his solitude.  He waits for no one and nothing, only counts the minutes to the end of his shift.  But on this special evening he'll be paid a visit by an upper class, quarreling couple; A college girl, fit for a magazine centerfold, and her better half, a wealthy, modern male misogynist.  The upscale couple wouldn't be caught dead frequenting such a rundown establishment.  Tonight, however, they'll make an exception.      These three nobodies, with nothing in common, suddenly sojourn into the darkest realms of a horrific unknown, and this pit stop will be their gateway to the sick, sultry, psychotic realm often referred to as the macabre.
