You don’t find them

They find you …

As the moon rises, the dark night carries a warning. Death walks in many forms.

An ancient wood hides an eternal secret, while in bygone Edinburgh, the sea mist rolls in and the leerie — a lamplighter — hears an unusual whisper in the shadows.

Contestants at a lonely hearts event give answers that may carry a bite, and the rites of an arranged marriage weave their own dark bonds beyond the grave …

Twenty nine original frights seeped in myth and mystery, from the new voice in gothic horror
