Once Upon a Time in Jurupa: a sun-scorched descent into the Inland Empire’s darkest folklore and mind-twisting horror
The streets remember. The groves whisper. And the heat hides what the dark won’t.
Riverside, 1994. A cursed orchard demands sacrifice. A hotel swallows its guests whole. A roadside ride takes you straight into hell.
Once Upon a Time in Jurupa delivers ten relentless tales of folk horror, urban legend, and sun-scorched dread. Each story stands alone— yet together they twist into a nightmare of haunted streets, cultural wounds, and converging fates.
If you crave the creeping unease of Shirley Jackson, the cultural hauntings of Silvia Moreno-Garcia, and the brutal daylight terror of Stephen Graham Jones, these stories will find you.
Read it tonight— before the groves remember your name.
