Book Overview

Some horrors were never meant to be unearthed.


Evil lurks within the pages of Dead Letters: Episodes of Epistolary Horror...


A video game walkthrough harbors sinister secrets. A grieving sister's letters blur the line between alive and dead (and alive again). A chain of frightening emails is the only evidence that a young woman ever walked the earth. And a series of journals pursue a dwindling wagon train marching into Hell-or someplace worse.


Haunting podcast transcripts. Blood-soaked police reports. Bewildering court findings. Brace yourself for an anthology that resurrects the chilling power of epistolary fiction-where ordinary documents transform into vessels of absolute terror.


Spanning 21 original tales blending the classic gothic horror of Stoker's Dracula with the contemporary dread of Things Have Gotten Worse Since We Last Spoke by Eric LaRocca, Dead Letters contains both short sharp shocks and prolonged sojourns into the macabre-and promises to haunt your sleepless nights.


Featuring thrilling contributions from Gemma Files, Ai Jiang, Gordon B. White, J.A.W. McCarthy, and Red Lagoe, and curated with precision by Jacob Steven Mohr (The Unwelcome and Nightfall and Other Dangers) Dead Letters: Episodes of Epistolary Horror solidifies its place among the pantheon of must-read horror anthologies.
