A vicious, haunting collection of extreme and psychological horror. From 3 sisters battling the monstrous legacy left by their father, to a man devolving into his own delusions, to teachers, bosses, lovers, and ghosts who carve and claw their way into the bodies and minds of their victims, and the reader, these stories explore the many forms violence takes in the modern world. 3 Sisters Fight A Ghost is a brutal, challenging, occasionally darkly funny, and always emotionally honest collection of survival, power, and the horrors we inherit.
A Look at the included stories:
“Three Sisters Fight a Ghost”
3 Sisters sets the pace for the collection with its tone of both intimacy and extremity in equal parts. A story examining the supernatural staying power of childhood trauma, how the body long remembers what the mind would forget and how we all cope in different ways, but most effectively together.
“Truth in Television”
Gary is an asshole. He is from a different time, almost a different place and doesn’t necessarily like the world he’s in now. In “Truth In Television” a story examining the para-social relationship the American Dream has with our need for our 15 minutes of fame, we learn Monsters aren’t just inherited; they’re also self-made.
“A Certain Kind of Giggle”
A story about discomfort, xenophobia, and weaponized humor showing how violence can be subtle, disguised, or even socially sanctioned. Laughter can sound different depending on who is laughing….or for how long they laugh.“Teacher’s Pet”
An homage to goosebump causing stories of the 90s, a high school horror story about friendship, trust and that one substitute teacher that all the rumors were about. Not all lessons are worth learning.
“All My Precious Possessions”
In a story of domestic terror we learn that the trauma doesn’t end when the fighting does, we see how one man’s malice can infect an entire family.
“Prey”
Who is the hunter? Who is the prey? Did you see what your eyes told you they did, or was it something else completely? A dark disturbing story about obsession and revenge, “Prey” will remain with you long after the last page.
“Sacked”
A Splatterpunk take on union politics……or maybe a silly homage to 80s slasher boom…we are not entirely sure. It maybe a commentary on the psychological effects of innate replaceability or an excuse to do a bunch of fun kills.
“Hollowed”
A Sci-Fi Horror turned body horror take on modern America. In a story about the loss of humanity and the way we empty our selves out for our beliefs, we enter a world were an unseen threat has splintered the world even further, now can humanity pull it together for one last stand?
“The Legacies of Salem-Beginnings”
In a bonus story, we include the prologue to “The Legacies of Salem” series of web-stories, collected and in print for the first time ever.
A group of teens each troubled with disturbing visions which seem to be coming true must discover what these visions, mythology and a shadowy figure have in common with the Legacy of Salem.
Release date this month, TBA in next few days, stay tuned.
