“We went from room to room, peering under the beds and in the corners, hunting for shadows the way children would…”

The Book Fairies have been spreading some chills today with this spooky anthology… look out for copies of The Gathering Dark hiding in the shadows near you! These books have been shared all around the states…

About the book:

A cemetery full of the restless dead. A town so wicked it has already burned twice, with the breath of the third fire looming. A rural, isolated bridge with a terrifying monster waiting for the completion of its summoning ritual. A lake that allows the drowned to return, though they have been changed by the claws of death. These are the shadowed, liminal spaces where the curses and monsters lurk, refusing to be forgotten.

Hauntings, and a variety of horrifying secrets, lurk in the places we once called home. Written by New York Times bestselling, and other critically acclaimed authors, these stories shed a harsh light on the scariest tales we grew up with.

Urban legends and folktales are given new life in this collection of 13 spine-tingling stories from a stellar line-up of critically acclaimed authors.
