Tiny Nightmares

Tiny Nightmares: Very Short Tales of Horror
with Lincoln Michel, editor
Catapult, 2020. 289 pages. Short Stories

Tiny Nightmares brings to life broken-hearted vampires, Uber-taking serial killers, mind-reading witches, and monsters of all imaging, as well as stories that tackle the horrors of our modern world from global warming and racism to social media addiction and online radicalization.

A spine-tingling collection where leading literary and horror writers spin unforgettably chilling tales in only a few pages, so be sure to read this with a light (or two) on. Recommended for those looking to find more stories to tell over a campfire and for bite-sized shocks that linger.
