The Missed Creations is a collection of horror stories by John Beach. Primarily conceived in the early 1980s, these tales lived fragmented, uncompleted lives only in the mind of the author, a mind too busy with other aspects of its own life to give them the attentive care they deserved. The author has, however, finally given them a semblance of life and released them here.
This collection contains two novellas and five short stories, each of which includes a Classic Monster type: mummies, Frankenstein-like monsters, werewolves, vampires, invisible men, ghosts, or zombies. Although horror stories, none of these tales are particularly horrific, gory, or even frightening. They are instead human stories, sometimes sad, heroic, mean, defiant, crazy, even laughable. These stories wanted to be written but they would prefer to be read.
