Scary Stories Told in the Dark — A Horror Fiction Anthology Series

After losing his career, his marriage, and nearly everything he had saved, Caleb returns to his quiet Midwestern hometown hoping to begin again. Instead, he encounters a warning that has circulated through the community for generations: never travel Briar’s Bend after dark. The isolated road has been the site of countless unexplained accidents. Drivers report losing control on clear nights, their vehicles suddenly pulled toward the trees by a force they cannot see. Older residents claim the cause is something known only as the Hairy Hands. Caleb has no patience for ghost stories—until an invisible grip seizes his steering wheel. Drawn into the road’s disturbing history, Caleb discovers decades of crashes, frightened survivors, and accounts that conventional explanations cannot resolve. The closer he comes to understanding Briar’s Bend, the more dangerously personal its legend becomes.

Richard Prasse has had strange neighbors before. None of them were anything like Eliza Munoz. Beautiful, mysterious, and surrounded by a seemingly endless procession of late-night visitors, Eliza quickly becomes an irresistible distraction for the lonely medical resident living next door.

They're evidence of something hungry. Soon Richard finds himself trapped between attraction and terror as the woman he can't stop thinking about reveals a side of herself no human being was ever meant to see. And when another dangerous figure from Eliza's past appears, Richard realizes that his neighbor may not be the only monster in the building.

Eight-year-old Terrance is supposed to be asleep. Instead, he's listening to something scratch against his second-story bedroom window. At first, it sounds like a branch brushing the glass. Then it comes again—slower, sharper, deliberate. And when Terrance finally gathers the courage to look outside, he finds a pale face staring back at him from a place no one should be able to stand. Within moments, an ordinary night in a quiet suburban home becomes a desperate fight for survival as Terrance and his family discover they aren't dealing with a prowler—or anything else that should exist. Pale figures are gathering outside. They are impossibly fast, terrifyingly persistent, and very, very hungry. And once they've chosen a home, locked doors may not be enough to keep them out.

Death is supposed to be the end. At least... that's what we've always believed.
