Up in the North, just before the barren plains of ice, winter brings two things- silence and dark. In the summer months, the sun never sets but in winter, it never rises, and those days of frozen darkness are as long and cold as death. When the silence that usually falls in winter is ruptured by a howling, the people of the town scramble for an explanation. How, they ask, could there be a howling, an agonized wail that sounds like a person, out on the ice where nobody could survive. Howling in the North is the story of that sound. How it terrorized the town, how it got closer and how in the end, we found out what was causing it.

Tapping On Glass

Late at night, alone in his apartment a young man hears the tapping on glass. How, he thinks, could someone be at the window, when he lives on the eleventh floor? How could that tapping, soft and deliberate, still be coming late at night and how could his dog simply disappear, from a room in which the doors and windows were all securely locked? Tapping on glass is a tale of horror, urban myths, twice-told tales, and the awful truths that often lurk, not so far behind them.

Shades Of Autumn

When artist Julian begins to turn green, his friends assume its something to do with the paint he is using.

As time goes on, however, Julian's friends come to realize that this year, the changing of the seasons will have far stranger and far darker effects on him. Shades Of Autumn is a tale of desperation, horror, and nature at its cruelest.

Seeing Lucifer’s Smile

When Joe, a cop who has never taken a day off in twenty-five years, suddenly calls in sick, his partner Mal instantly assumes there is more to it. Finding Joe at his home, tired, disheveled, and clearly, visibly shaken, Mal begins to worry. With good cause. Joe’s absence and shattered mental state can be traced back to a case file and the video that came with it. The video of a strange ritual, an occult practice, and a prank went horribly wrong. If you have ever repeated the words ‘Bloody Mary’ or ‘Candyman’ into a mirror and wondered where such traditions come from, then ‘Seeing Lucifer’s Smile’ will answer your questions. Just take care of how far you push those answers and watch what you say, in front of the mirror.

The Erl King’s Promise: A Short Horror Story

Though they seem familiar and even comforting with their warm reminders of youth, the true roots of many fairy tales are sprouted from darker soil. The original versions of some of the tales are far more sinister than we imagine. Even those we know and love, when examined in the cold light of day, run with a malevolent undercurrent of violence, menace and terror. Yet when we encounter someone who says they like fairy tales, we expect a certain type of person. A certain type of girl. We’d rather have the clean, sanitised version, both of the stories and their readers. Unfortunately, the thin veneer that separates us from the darkness beneath, sometimes comes away and sometimes what we find lingering under the surface, is far from a happy ending.

The Wrong Side Of Albert: A Short Horror Story

In prison, you hear a lot of stories. Whether they are from criminals trying to make themselves more intimidating or men sharing fragments of their pasts in an attempt to piece it all back together. Some of the stories are horrifying, some violent, but the ones that scare you the most are the ones that are true. Like the one about Albert Pike, the mild-mannered prison librarian that, despite his age, everyone seems to fear. Or the one about the ouija board carved into the floor of the prison, the man who talks to other people in his cell at night, even though he’s alone or the strange punishments delivered to the wicked, by those who are wickeder still. Those stories truly haunt you, because though the bars keep the prisoners in, they don’t keep the dark thing out.

The Damned Hands Murders: A Short Horror Story

“Usually, when you find physical evidence at a murder scene, it helps the investigation. It points the police in the direction of the suspects and most of the time helps them to solve and close the case. So, when a body turns up with its head smashed in, the first thing the detectives do is search for evidence. When a hammer covered in blood stained fingerprints is found, the case seems on its way to being solved, until it is revealed to whom those fingerprints belong. On paper, it should be easy. A hammer covered in prints, prints linked to someone in the system, someone who has a history of violence and has even been suspected of murder before. It should be easy, but it’s not, because as well as having a record, this same someone also happens to be dead. How can a dead man commit murder? How can he leave evidence at the scene and call the victim’s relatives after the fact? Are these murders related to the strange rituals and dabblings with the occult taken by a known criminal? The Damned Hands is a story of murder, haunting, and the occult, where following the evidence, leads to some very dark places indeed.
