New Fears - New horror stories by masters of the genre
New Fears - New horror stories by masters of the genre | Mark Morris
4 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
FEAR COMES IN MANY FORMS The horror genre’s greatest living practitioners drag our darkest fears kicking and screaming into the light in this collection of nineteen brand-new stories. In “The Boggle Hole” by Alison Littlewood an ancient folk tale leads to irrevocable loss. In Josh Malerman’s “The House of the Head” a dollhouse becomes the focus for an incident both violent and inexplicable. And in “Speaking Still” Ramsey Campbell suggests that beyond death there may be far worse things waiting than we can ever imagine... Numinous, surreal and gut wrenching, New Fears is a vibrant collection showcasing the very best fiction modern horror has to offer.

Meh. Maybe the next 1 will excite me, but I'm super particular about my horror

I must say, a quick glance at the TOC has me dismayed by the low number of women included in these 2 collections. 😒 I‘ll reserve judgment for after I take a closer look.

Most of the writers in this horror anthology are British, with the rest being Americans. The stories were just okay, not quite as scary as what I‘m used to. Good to read if you have a spare few minutes. I give it only 2.5 stars out of 5, overall.
