As a deadly scourge overwhelms the continent, four survivors race to find a last exit out of Australia. Up in the attic, a bedtime story outlives its storyteller. A city boy visits his country cousins and stumbles on a terrifying family secret. From a film set in the Arizona desert, to an overgrown rambling old house in the Florida swamps, to the dusty streets of a small Mexican town, the stories in this volume plunge the reader into the shadows of a world almost forgotten by modern fables of cold science and bright sunlight. They are the brushed over voices who call a warning to those who would comfort themselves in the thought that monsters aren't real, and those things can't happen here. Stories We Tell After Midnight Volume 2 offers up tales of revenge, of hunger, and of the horror that stalks you just beyond the glow of your cell phone light, but only to those who dare turn the page... *Table of Contents* Bedtime Tales Nicola Lombardi / trans.

Clockwork fairies, arachnid mothers, the Carnival Ghost...The stories gathered here take the reader on a winding trip down a darkened road as the battery in your phone slowly dies. The threads of this collection weave a tale of wrong turns in the early morning hours, of faded photographs that don't quite fit one's memory, of dying monarchs and has-been superheroes.In these pages, you will find the eerie, the grim, and the lost souls that wander the gloom. These stories were born of dark nights and cold drives and the certain knowledge that, as winter sets in and the nights grow longer, there's more out there in the darkness than the shadows let on... Side Roads is a collection of short fiction from speculative fiction author Rachel A. Brune.

On the European front, there are worse things stalking the battlefield than enemy soldiers. A laid-off ad exec's second career takes a turn for the bloody. The halls of Shy Rock High welcome the Class of 2005-but why so few attendees to this shadowy gala? The stories in this anthology are the glimpses of the dark places between the forest and a dream. They are the shadows seeking dusty trinkets on a forgotten shelf. They invite the reader into a world where a grieving mother gives her lost daughter one last bubble bath. Tangle & Fen is an anthology of dark fiction, featuring tales from the borderlands of horror, speculative fiction, and the nightmare fears that linger even after you turn on the lights.
