Stories in the Dark Volume 1: The Horror

For fans of Neil Gaiman, Kendare Blake, or anything spooky and weird comes this collection of short stories from the writer and producer of the mildly successful Stories in the Dark podcast. For the first time in print, this collection includes twelve horrifying original stories from the podcast and one that’s all new.Described as “Edgar Allen Poe if he were a feminist raised on comic books,” Gabrielle has created a world of vicious women, terrifying creatures, and people who get what they deserve. These tales run the gamut from gothic horror to ghostly vengeance and will make your spine crawl; these are not for the faint of heart.The whole collection deserves a content warning: There will be blood. And murder. And mayhem. There are wrongdoers doing wrong and, sometimes, wrongs being righted.If you don’t like your stories weird and twisted then this is not for you; stay away. Stay in the light. These are the stories we tell in the dark, to frighten, to illuminate, to find out what happens to the things that go bump in the night.If that hasn’t scared you off then curl up with these dark tales and get ready - because someone is going to die. FAQ:1) “I don’t listen to the podcast, should I get this?” - Absolutely! We chose stories that read as well or even better than they sound on the podcast, and all of these are stand alone stories. We wanted to reach more people, and some people just like to read - so read this!2) “I listen to the podcast, should I get this?” - I would, but I’m a nerd who likes to own things and read them; I’m not as big on listening. Also, since the stories span all three seasons, odds are you haven’t heard all twelve, and the thirteenth is ONLY available as part of this collection! Plus you’ll be supporting us as creators, which just gives everyone warm fuzzies.3) “I don’t like torture stories/exploitation, will I like this?” - Oh yes. This is horror for people who aren’t just into torture; who like gothic and creepy; who don’t want the victims to always be women.
