A Black neighborhood is haunted by ghost children. A Grand Bruja with the gift of sight can't see what's in store. A young girl strikes a deal that causes her younger brother to vanish. A woman is locked in an asylum with no explanation.
In 1976 Bed-Stuy, two boys find a dead body in an empty lot. A village faces the annual return of their deceased loved ones. A magical Cameroonian scarf symbolizes a sisterly bond. Many people go missing on long stretches of highways. Memorials immortalize some, while others are forgotten-this spirit doesn't want to be forgotten. A spiritual advisor uses her gifts to find love again.
A woman comes to terms with her marriage as extinct animals emerge from her throat. A reimagining of a fable involving a bridge, a troll, and a couple of goats-this time, the scariest monster might be the eldest sister in a family of witches.
....and more stories.
