My Gehenna is a collection of sixty spooky stories written by Southwestern Ontario author Jason Rip, whose surname inclined him to be interested in the macabre. The stories range from artificial Hells to Bigfoot hunters to despots who collect Happy Meal toys. My Gehenna is a ghastly grab-bag of horrors reflecting the phobias and fascinations of its very strange author.
