We publish exceptional horror fiction, from the macabre to the supernatural to the thoroughly terrifying. Topics may include but are not limited to vampirism, lycanthropy, demonic possession, witchcraft, hauntings and apparitions of all sorts. While we prefer novels, we will consider collections of high-quality horror short stories. We are currently especially interested in well-written, truly frightening horror fiction with unusual settings, such as monasteries, museums and the like.
