Dark Assembly Kindle Edition

4.1 out of 5 stars 151 ratings

TAKE PRIDE IN YOUR DYSFUNCTION


This assembly of putrid tales will drag you into the darkest regions of humanity. It will push extremes and test the mental and moral boundaries of those who choose to participate.


Meet a woman who carries a dead baby inside her womb and also the belief that her stillborn fetus will somehow find life again. Connect with a nomadic punk-rocker who's out to make a quick buck when he's presented with a sickening conundrum. Join two teenage psychopaths as they bring hell to the suburbs on Devil's Night. Follow a child of the streets who finally steered away from a life of crime only to be drawn back by a bizarre new drug. Take part in a gruesome and nefarious ritual that can restore one's innocence, or worm your way into the dark web beside a sadistic pedophile with a bottomless desire to kill and destroy.


How should you feel after digesting these admittedly obscene and repulsive stories? Ask yourself if enjoying them makes you a horrible person or if hating them somehow justifies your journey into this storm of violence and perversion. For the sick and willing, please join in our Dark Assembly…

Well damn! That was AMAZING!
5 out of 5 stars
Well damn! That was AMAZING!
It's been a minute since I've read a book that actually made me feel something... Dark Assembly did just that... The stories, combined with the writing and the illustrations were the perfect combination of ingredients to create a wonderful disturbing collection of twisted tales... All the stories within Dark Assembly were great, but one in particular, and one specific illustration made me super uncomfortable, even a bit anxious (which was a good thing)... I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Dark Assembly, but know that this collection is not for the squeamish, or easily offended...

    Nice variety of very satisfying stories. If you dig his other work, this is a must read. Check it out!

    The questionable use of the N word(with the hard R)and the way it was used in the story? I didn’t really enjoy that.

    Beauregard's once again raises the bar... Excellent collection of six unique stories to invoke horror: spine-tingling, blood-curdling, brain-boiling horror. However you may find a few laughs along the way :) . I take the liberty of reviewing each story. Enjoy.

    1. 'The Baptism' is actually a very sad story. Felt sorry for the characters, especially at the very end. The last sentence in this story really brings it full-circle.

    2. 'Population Control': I guess it reminds me of what Planned Parenthood would look like if it was run by Josef Mengele.

    3. For 'Rotten Eggs' all I have to say is, don't mess with cats (no reference to the documentary).

    4. By the time you get to 'Some Girl', I recommend grab a mug of hot chocolate, light a candle and curl up with a blanket and BARF-BAG -- splatter at it's finest. 

    5. 'The Procurement of Purity' will have you thinking twice about ever dumping another lover. I guess some people have a different view 'forever'. This story will have your skin crawling...

    6.  'Last Days in Honduras' takes you to the absolute depths of the dark net. Just pure, unfiltered evil. The details had my stomach turning. Do NOT read this before a meal or bedtime, trust me on that. Having some of these images in your mind will surely ruin your dinner or give you night-sweats. The main character is just plain sick. Its horrifying to know some of the stuff in this story really happens.

    Does the cover of this book appeal to you? Great! We're off! Explicit and disturbing content is served. Six stories are presented in living color, many of which are tinted with questionable constituents. But let me assure you that each story is well written and involves the reader in creative and stomach churning plots. Issues such as rebirth, retribution, deep obsession and hallucinogenic horror will keep your eyes on each brightly painted page. And there are illustrations! If you are not disturbed by extreme and graphic content, pick up this book. I will be reading more by this author, and chances are, so will you.

As I started reading each story it brought back memories of my childhood which now I need to get therapy again. I recommend everyone to read Dark Assembly as it will entertain but also leave you wanting for more!!!!

    Great stuff! Didn’t know how I would feel about the pure gruesomeness but it is just the right amount of intriguing and disgusting that I couldn’t put it down! Very well written and there is enough character development within each story that you “connect” with them before the nasty happens. I read the whole book in one sitting and can’t wait to read more by this author.

    I knew this collection of stories was going to be sick and twisted just by looking at the cover...and boy did it not disappoint. Its great at stitching together horror stories in a sick and unexpected way. I highly recommend this book, but its not for the easily offended or those with weak stomachs.

    I've been reading Aron's work now for a little bit, and this has to be the best selection of Short Stories that he's put out so far. Aron's stories have always read, to me, like a collection of Tales from the Crypt, if the Crypt Keeper was about 10 times more hardcore and there were no limits in what he could weave into his stories.

    The following stories are included in this Novel:

    The Baptism - An incredibly bleak look at Postpartum Depression

    Population Control - An ingenious way of eliminating the scum from our Society

    Rotten Eggs - Devil's Night has never been this depraved

    Some Girl - One of the strongest stories in the Collection. A very bad case of the Worms.

    The Procurement of Purity - A different take on Fatal Attraction

    Last Days in Honduras - In my opinion, this is the strongest selection in this collection. There should be a strong trigger warning going in here. If you're the type of person that gets offended and needs their Horror to fall in between definable limits, then don't read this story.

    In my opinion, there wasn't a weak story in this collection. I read it over two days because I had problems putting it down. I'm also happy to see that Aron has several Projects that he's hoping to release in the near future because these have become a bit of a guilty pleasure for me.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A collection of unflinchingly extreme horror tales told in a unique and compelling style.
    Reviewed in Australia on September 29, 2020
    High lights include ‘Some Girl,’ which blends the gritty realism of a memoir with a mind-bending dose of bizarro horror; ‘Last Days in Honduras,’ a pitch black tale with a protagonist so appalling you’ll be itching to enjoy their inevitable demise; and ‘Rotten Eggs,’ in which a pair of delinquents set out to raise hell on Devil’s Night – and might just receive an answer in return. These and other stories are told in a pleasantly idiosyncratic prose style that often surprises with its novelty. The text is accompanied by confronting illustrations that suitably echo the author’s take-no-prisoners style. The characters, though not always likeable, are almost always interesting – even when their actions are repugnant. The stories, though filled with gore and depravity, never feel gratuitous, and are home to novel concepts, interesting themes, and intelligent twists. Fans of extreme horror should definitely check this out.
