Two weird, funny, horror stories.
"Gingerbread House," which originally appeared in Weird Tales in 2010, involves a reality show in which contestants live in a house made of cake in the middle of nowhere.

In "Joey's Undead Dog," a boy discovers his necromantic powers when his dead dog, Buddy, comes back to life. Joey enlists his best friend Conner to help him, as they both flee the zombie roadkill who now find Joey irresistible.
