Across forgotten mountains, cursed rivers, haunted forests, and ancient ruins, something waits in the dark.
Dark Tales from the Outside gathers a wide range of horror voices from around the world, each exploring legends, folklore, monsters, ghosts, and the hidden fears lurking just beyond the edge of human understanding. From Appalachian nightmares and Japanese yōkai to ancient prophecies and eldritch terrors, these stories cross cultures and borders while embracing the many faces of horror.
Inside these pages, you will encounter restless spirits, flesh-hungry entities, cursed landscapes, supernatural vengeance, and the terrifying consequences of curiosity, greed, arrogance, and obsession. Some horrors whisper softly from the shadows. Others tear their way into the world screaming.
Dark, atmospheric, and deeply varied, this anthology is a journey through folklore-inspired horror and uncanny fiction from an international cast of writers.
