Step inside a world where shadows speak, technology betrays, and the monsters that haunt us most wear our own faces.
In Stories to Haunt the Living, Michael Slabicki delivers eight chilling tales that unravel the hidden horrors of modern life. A cursed scroll reveals truths no one wants to hear. A deadly affair ends with two women hunted by the man they murdered. A viral video turns a father into a slave of the algorithm. Smart homes refuse to let their owners leave. Texts arrive from beyond the grave. In Argus, even time is currency-and the bill always comes due.
And in the unforgettable final story, The Kind One, a man discovers that a gentler, more careful version of himself has stepped out of the static to replace him. What if your family learned to love the stranger who wore your face better than you ever could?
Each story is detailed, immersive, and terrifying enough to stand alone, yet together they form a collection that lingers long after the last page.
