Scaremongrel

by Matthew Baker

HAVE YOU EVER SLEPT WITH THE LIGHTS ON?
YOU WILL NOW.
We have scoured the globe to find the creepiest new prose imaginable, from a gaggle of horror veterans Guy Adams, Tim Lebbon and A.K. Benedict, along with offerings from prize-winning literary writers such as Will Ashon and Michael Blake.
These ten, terrifying tales will have you crawling the walls for a light switch; you’ll be calling Dominos just to hear a human voice on the end of the line. Either that, or you’ll come face-to-face with the horrible millennial you've become. Whatever deeps this collection uncovers, they are dark and bleak and sure to blow your mind.
