Different But Fun
Twilight Perils offers readers a riveting anthology of short stories nestled in the horror genre, showcasing a diverse range of characters and narratives. Where did the idea for this collection of stories come from?
They were stories in my head that I wanted to create for a while. It helped when I put my thoughts on paper. It then took time to make different ideas for them.
What character did you enjoy writing for? Was there one that was more challenging to write for?
I liked all the characters in this collection. Each story had its challenges.
What draws you to the horror genre and makes it ripe for you to write such gripping short stories in it?
I wanted to do something different but fun at the same time. Since mystery is my main niche, I wanted to explore other genres like horror, paranormal, supernatural, and dark fantasy. I took classic monsters and villains and used them to create captivating stories. It was a lot of fun, but it took time to create this collection.
What is the next book that you are working on, and when can your fans expect it to be out?
Expect my next book, The Angel City Rapture: A Gale Queen Murder Mystery, to be out on Valentine’s Day-February 14, 2024. It is my first Christian fiction book that centers on Detective Gale Queen and the Rapture. It is available for purchase as a pre-order. Grab it here for $0.99 on Amazon before the price rises.

Twilight Perils: A Collection of Eight Secret Stories
Miguel Angel Hernandez’s Twilight Perils offers a riveting anthology of short stories nestled in the horror genre, showcasing a diverse range of characters and narratives. This collection artfully oscillates between suspenseful thrillers, unsettling horror, and intriguing mysteries. Standout stories include “The Forbidden Hunger,” “A Virtual Crisis,” and “Hunting a Nightmare.”
In “The Forbidden Hunger,” readers meet Joshua, who, in his desperation to find a cure for terminal cancer, encounters unforeseen consequences after seeking help from a witch. “A Virtual Crisis” introduces Autumn, a dispirited virtual reality gamer. Her reluctant alliance with a ghost investigator to vanquish an evil spirit adds an intriguing layer to the tale. Meanwhile, “Hunting a Nightmare” offers an intense pursuit, featuring a detective’s relentless quest to apprehend a cunning, sadistic vampire serial killer.
The narrative consistently engages the reader, weaving a dramatic journey where characters must outmaneuver formidable adversaries and overcome harrowing obstacles. The stories evoke a spectrum of emotions, from the despair of victims succumbing to their adversaries to the exhilaration of others fighting valiantly for survival. This emotional journey provokes reflection on one’s own potential for bravery and resourcefulness under similar circumstances. Hernandez’s writing shines in its ability to deliver unexpected conclusions. The pacing is meticulously crafted, building tension and horror that culminates at precisely the right moments. The anthology features an array of iconic monstrous figures — ghosts, vampires, werewolves, among others — each story standing distinct in its portrayal and narrative style.
The fusion of horror and suspense is masterfully executed, making Twilight Perils a compelling read. The book contains mature themes, and as such, I feel it is more suited for an adult audience. For those with a penchant for horror, Hernandez’s collection promises an immersive and thrilling experience.
