Each story has a different take on the legend of the Vampire. Some hide from the darkness and others can walk in the daylight. Some are cold, calculated killers and other are full of teenaged angst. Some are held at bay by garlic but others love Italian food. Here is a collection of story designed to poke funny at the whole vampire genre. We have funny stories about the troubles of immortality, about the crazy life of the vampire slayer, and about just how the different vampires get along. But in all the stories, one element is always there. Vampire Suck.

Science can be both savior and damnation. The inventions of the great minds of the world can make our lives easier, bring about our destruction and facilitate the delivery of terabits worth of funny cat videos. Technically, those last two might be the same thing. Here is a collection of humorous tales of science like the perils of time travel, how body switching can both help and hurt the gender gap, the woes of the classic Mad Scientist in a modern world and the importance of pizza throughout the universe. So grab your guide and towel. Get ready to brave the dangerous terrain of theory and hypothesis. Madness and Science go hand and hand. Skipping, Singing and Laughing Maniacally! Muahahaha!

An anthology of humorous stories in the Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror genres. Alternate Hilarities was originally a small press fan-zine in the early nineties of funny stories in my favorite genres, Science fiction, Fantasy and Horror. Six issues were produced against my ex-wife's express wishes. And they were terrible! Just Terrible! It had a semi professional look but proofing was not my strong suit. I had no funds to hire a proof reader and let's face it, volunteers suck. But the stories were great. Many talented authors sent in great funny stories. With concepts like games show in the afterlife, the last man alive and the secret life of a teenaged mad scientist. But in the end, the cost of publishing my pet project became too much and the zine was retired. Now, two decades later, the overhead and distribution issues of the small press have almost disappeared with the advent of eBooks. With a new partner in crime who can do line edits, I decided to give my old love a second shot. So, here it is, The New and Improved Alternate Hilarities. We have Alien invasions and Abductions, Time Travel, Ghost Ships, Demonic Possessions, Flatulent Clowns, Body Switching, Talking Monkeys and Feghoots. So off we go. With Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror and Hilarities for all!
