The Bleeding Margin, Issue No. 2 pushes deeper into horror as lived experience, where violence is intimate, morality is unstable, and terror emerges from systems as often as from the supernatural.
Across more than 100 pages of fiction, poetry, interviews, and visual art, this issue confronts war, surveillance, moral panic, institutional cruelty, online vigilantism, inherited trauma, and the quiet brutality of everyday spaces. The stories gathered here move through post-apocalyptic desolation, combat and bodily collapse, obsessive digital cultures, social erasure, and acts of violence that linger long after they are witnessed-or ignored.
This issue features interviews with Stephen Graham Jones and Paul Tremblay, alongside in-depth author Q&As that accompany every piece, pulling back the curtain on craft, obsession, ethics, and intent. The result is not commentary layered on top of the work, but a second descent, one that exposes how these stories were made, and why they refuse easy closure.
Visual art drawn from museum and private collections runs throughout the issue, functioning not as illustration but as pressure: interruptions, echoes, and wounds embedded between texts. Together, the writing and art insist on a central truth: that horror is not spectacle, nor metaphor alone, but a way of reckoning with power, memory, injustice, and the body.
