What to expect
“A haunting is a moment of trauma, infinitely repeated. It extends forward and backward in time. It is the hole grief makes. It is a house built by memory in-between your skin and bones.”
A lush and elegant collection of tales—many having appeared in various “Best Of” anthologies—teeming with frightful and tragic events, yet profoundly and intimately human. These chilling tales will engross and enthrall.
For readers of Kelly Link, Carmen Maria Machado, and Angela Carter, this is a must have collection of ghostly tales set to deliver a frisson of terror and glee.
Critics Review

“Fans of Paul Tremblay, Kelly Link, and Seanan McGuire will gravitate to this standout exploration of the supernatural. An essential read for fans of the horrible, shivery, and unsettling.”

Publishers Weekly (starred review)
-
“A.C Wise’s stories set my guts on fire, make my heart hurt and my head spin. I am so grateful for her brave and brilliant work—and for this collection.”
Sam J. Miller, Nebula Award–winning author of Blackfish City
-
“There’s a sense of wonder to these horror stories that I would say is almost fantasy, except for all the terrible stuff happening—but in the most beautiful language, with the most compelling characters. We’re lucky to be reading A. C. Wise.”
Stephen Graham Jones, author of My Heart Is a Chainsaw
