+HORROR LIBRARY+ VOLUME 6


Since 2006, the +Horror Library+ series of anthologies has been internationally praised as a groundbreaking source of contemporary horror short fiction stories—relevant to the moment and stunning in impact—from leading authors of the macabre and darkly imaginative.
 
Filled with Fears and Fantasy. Death and Dark Dreams. Monsters and Mayhem. Literary Vision and Wonder. Each volume of the +Horror Library+ series is packed with heart-pounding thrills and creepy contemplations as to what truly lurks among the shadows of the world(s) we live in.

Containing 27 all-original stories, read Volume 6 in this ongoing anthology series, and then continue with the other volumes.

Shamble no longer through the banal humdrum of normalcy, but ENTER THE HORROR LIBRARY!

Included within Volume 6:

•   In “Better You Believe,” remnants of a mountain climbing party must help each other climb down a mountain after an avalanche.

•   In “The Starry Crown,” a college professor travels to the American South to research lyrics of an old religious hymn with roots in slavery.

•   In “The Plumber,” a young couple call in a plumber to fix a clogged line, but the service call escalates into an inescapable nightmare.

• In “Elsa and I,” a Hollywood stage hand working on The Bride of Frankenstein, searches for redemption while tortured by drug addiction and regret.

• In “The Red-Eye to Boston,” certain revenge is found in the toilet of a night-flying plane.

. . . and more!
