Folk horror rooted in cursed and familiar places
This young adult folk-horror anthology gathers tales set in places where local history, isolation, and the supernatural overlap. Its terrors emerge through a cemetery of unsettled dead, a repeatedly burned town, an isolated rural bridge tied to a summoning, and a lake where drowning does not remain final. Across these settings, the collection returns to curses, hauntings, monsters, and secrets embedded in communities and landscapes once understood as home. The anthology format offers multiple encounters with the darker side of inherited stories and familiar places.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Teen and young adult horror readers
- Fans of folk horror, curses, and hauntings
- Readers who enjoy short-story collections with supernatural settings

*The Instant Indie Bestseller*
These are the stories that haunt us
A cemetery full of the restless dead. A town so wicked it has already burned twice, with the breath of the third fire looming. A rural, isolated bridge with a terrifying monster waiting for the completion of its summoning ritual. A lake that allows the drowned to return, though they have been changed by the claws of death. These are the shadowed, liminal spaces where the curses and monsters lurk, refusing to be forgotten.
Hauntings, and a variety of horrifying secrets, lurk in the places we once called home. Written by New York Times bestselling, and other critically acclaimed, authors these stories shed a harsh light on the scariest tales we grew up with.
