Garth Marenghi's Incarcerat

Garth Marenghi's Incarcerat
by Garth Marenghi 
2023, Coronet

Three more stories escaped from the mind of Nick Steen, the fictional author written by another fictional author, etc.

The first involves Steen being captured by a secretive corporation for psychic research. The second is a gothic/folk/evil doll combination, and the third is a Freddy parody with a dash of Candyman - the Randyman, a wrongfully accused toilet attendant getting vengeance from beyond the grave.

This one didn't do it for me. Trimmed down the underlying stories may have been better, and I know that it's half the schtick to have purposefully repetitive and overwrought exposition, but it wears a titch thin after 400 plus pages.
