Boccaccio's Boneyard is a cathedral of shadows and mystery-thirteen stories of horror, Gothic unease, and darkly comic mischief, each carved with the precision of a storyteller who understands that the most frightening things whisper, they don't roar. These tales explore the strange borderlands between the living and the dead, the sacred and the profane, the ordinary and the uncanny.
Within these pages, a drifter finds work at a mortuary and soon begins to unravel; a genius with a wicked plan confronts his own humanity; a U-boat captain's terrible mission leads to an ominous conclusion.
Malcolm Greystone's prose is atmospheric without excess, elegant without pretense-stories built like stonework, where every line carries weight. The anthology blends quiet dread with philosophical bite, gallows humor with emotional resonance, and a sense of place that feels both familiar and dreamlike. These are tales that linger, stories that don't shout but haunt, inviting readers to lean closer, listen carefully, and feel the temperature drop.
For readers drawn to Shirley Jackson, Ray Bradbury, Flannery O'Connor, and the darker corners of folklore, Boccaccio's Boneyard offers a journey through the beautiful, the grotesque, and the strangely human. It is a meditation on fear, fate, and the stories we tell to survive the night.
Step inside the boneyard. The gate is open.
