"What a perfectly balanced, well-curated batch of stories. The horrors that torment real people living ordinary lives are vividly on display here, as well as a fresh handful of supernatural tricks and treats. A short read to keep us awake for a long while."
—Katharine Coldiron, author of Ceremonials
The Horror is Us is an anthology about monsters and the monstrous things that grow from us—individually and together. It examines the horrors we experience and put each other through. The authors within this creeping collection demonstrate an eye for taking our world and adjusting the picture of it until we can see the gleaming teeth that were always there. A mix of killers, the supernatural, and everyday fears play out in these short stories that blend the aesthetics of slasher films, ghost stories, campfire tales, and thrillers. The Horror is Us gives a view into other people’s fears and asks us to feel that fear with them.
Stories from: Alexandria Baker, Alexis Brooks de Vita, J.D. Hellen, Justin Sanders, Jan Stinchcomb, Taylor Sykes, Abby Teed, Laura Walker, and Scott Bryan Wilson
