Description
With handsome young men who never grow old, and the strangest of relatives appearing from dark corridors and long shadows, the frenzied imagination of the American Gothic is a fertile theme for this next anthology in the Gothic fantasy short story series. As with other titles in the series, new short fiction complements the work of classic authors. New, contemporary and notable writers featured are: Terri Bruce, Ramsey Campbell, E.E.W. Christman, Maxx Fidalgo, Joshua Hiles, Russell James, Clayton Kroh, Sean Logan, Madison McSweeney, Lynette Mejia, Joe Nazare, Wendy Nikel, Christi Nogle, Lina Rather, M. Regan, Rebecca Ring, Mike Robinson, Lucy A. Snyder, Valerie B. Williams, and Nemma Wollenfang. These appear alongside classic stories by authors such as Ambrose Bierce, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Washington Irving, Shirley Jackson, Flannery O'Connor, Edgar Allan Poe and Edith Wharton.
