A dark short story collection where childhood fears, folklore, and quiet obsessions turn deadly.
When You Were Taken is filled with haunting short stories that explore love, belief, and the monsters that linger long after we grow up.
A young man returns from a mental hospital to confront his darkest memory.
A shepherd is swallowed by the sea after sharing a kiss with the wind's daughter.
A boy sleeps with a knife under his pillow, keeping watch over his new sister.
A small girl slips into the tiger's pen as the circus lights flicker out.
Blending fantasy, folklore, and psychological horror, these stories exist in the space where beauty bleeds into terror and nothing stays buried for long.
Perfect for readers who enjoy The Ocean at the End of the Lane, Through the Woods, and The Bloody Chamber. Quiet, unsettling, and atmospheric, When You Were Taken is ideal for fans of dark, literary short fiction.
