Nineteen stories by Chicago-area authors turn the city into the shared ground for this horror anthology. Its descriptive frame ranges from H.H. Holmes to the Jane Byrne Interchange at rush hour, bringing historical notoriety and everyday urban infrastructure into the same citywide tour. The collection’s defining feature is this local, multi-author lens: Chicago is not just a backdrop, but the organizing subject connecting distinct contributions. With stories by Cynthia Pelayo and eighteen other authors, the book offers a broad snapshot of horror writing rooted in the Chicago area.
