That’s right, Coverswap Shorties are back… and what is a Coverswap Shorty? It’s what happens when the original cover for another Tale from the Kreme gets new life inspiring brand new twisted tales with entirely new characters and crazy stories like nothing you’ve read before.

With direct input from readers just like you, these ten original covers have been brought back to new life, with brand new Trance-tory, brand new SINtendo, brand new spinoff series from popular characters like Donnie the Demon and holistic therapist Doctor Deep, the Dude, and more. Twists, turns, and terror await with hypnotism, horror, swelling, stuffing, cheating, and eating.

What happens when an engaged young couple heads off for Spring Break only for a breakdown to leave them riding in a semi truck, him in back, her in front… the driver tuning into Trance-tory Radio?

What happens when a diner owner inspired by his unique therapist tells his waitress to do whatever she has to in order to please a ruthless restaurant reviewer stopping by for coffee?

What happens when a food additive genius sends his assistant to use additives in a pie to drive the rats plaguing his work barn into a breeding fit… only for someone else to eat the pie first?

What happens when a single dad gets a SINtendo game for some me time, and running up the score turns me time into we time?

What happens when dirty doodles of a hot teacher turn her on until she wants to live those doodles out? And when a shallow beautiful woman needs a dress for her sister’s wedding, are the dresses she has been given to try on changing more than just her look?

Is there something sinister going on at the mysterious old apartment building located at 666 Kreme Street? What about when a luxury liner capsizes and survivors wash up on a lush island with natives who offer more than just their their help?

A lucky man who married a woman half his age has it all, including a hypnotic line to finally start that family with her… but what if his friends accidentally say the line first? Finally, a young woman’s mom hires a personal trainer for her… and he really knows some personal methods of stretching.

But wait… all these short stories… old covers, what if you’re a reader yearning for something new, something epic… something truly twisted and titillating over 24,000 words long?

Never fear, an original Kreme villain returns after more than thirteen years, that’s right… he literally defined insanity (more than anyone needed defining) and ruled over his own tropical island, performing mind and body-altering experiments on those unfortunate enough to end up there.

Doctor Darzula, the boogeyman of the tropics, one part witch doctor, one part scientist, all parts crazed mad man returns in a whole new tropical environment. Before he was just depraved, now he’s downright deviant in a brand new epic tale like nothing you’ve read before! That would just be insanity.

So this May, old is new, and the past returns all month long with brand new Tales from the Kreme!
