Behind locked laboratory doors, hidden research facilities, secret government projects, and twisted experiments, humanity continues to push beyond the limits of nature. But every breakthrough comes with a price, and every creation has a mind of its own.
Within these pages, you’ll encounter engineered predators lurking beneath city streets, self-aware bio-weapons fighting for their freedom, grotesque resurrection experiments, evolving human-animal hybrids, monstrous chimeras, and creations that have long since outgrown their makers’ control. Alongside fresh takes on Frankenstein’s legendary creature, these stories explore the terrifying consequences of ambition, obsession, and the relentless pursuit of forbidden knowledge.
Whether born from science, magic, or something in between, these are monsters forged by human hands, and they’re ready to prove that the greatest horror isn’t what we create, but why we create it.
Welcome to the laboratory. Just don’t expect to leave unchanged.
Fear wears many faces.
Sometimes it’s the shadow outside your window. Sometimes it’s the stranger standing too close. Sometimes it’s the monster lurking in the woods, the voice whispering from the darkness, or the terrible secret waiting to be uncovered. And sometimes, the thing you should fear most has been inside you all along.
From cursed songs and haunted amusement parks to relentless cryptids, ancient folklore, psychological nightmares, and horrors beyond imagination, these nineteen tales explore the many ways terror can consume us. Whether your fears are rooted in the supernatural, the unknown, or the darkest corners of the human mind, you’ll find something here to keep you awake long after you’ve turned the final page.

The Horror Collection: X-Ray Edition
Peer beneath the skin of reality and discover the horrors lurking underneath.
In this terrifying new installment of The Horror Collection, nothing is as it first appears. Scientific expeditions uncover ancient nightmares sleeping in the ocean’s depths. Grieving hearts strike desperate bargains with forces beyond understanding. Urban legends awaken, family bloodlines hide monstrous truths, and the dead refuse to forgive the living.
From cursed relics and cosmic predators to body horror, folk terror, psychological breakdowns, and creatures that wear human faces, X-Ray Edition strips away the comforting lies we tell ourselves and exposes the darkness beneath. Here, a village tree develops an insatiable hunger, a widow hunts a murderous angel statue, a mother descends into postpartum madness, and a simple cry for help in the woods leads to a fate worse than death.
Featuring twenty unforgettable tales from some of horror’s most imaginative voices, this anthology delivers a relentless journey through the grotesque, the supernatural, and the profoundly unsettling. Whether your fears lie in the depths of the ocean, the fragility of the human body, the secrets of the soul, or the vast unknown beyond the stars, you’ll find plenty to haunt you within these pages.
The Horror Collection continues its tradition of showcasing horror in all its forms, from slow-burning dread to visceral terror, proving once again that the most frightening things are often hidden just beneath the surface.
The moon rises once more in Werewolves II, the savage seventh entry in the Classic Monsters series, where the curse of the wolf is not just a transformation, but a reckoning.
An ex-soldier is hunted for sport under a full moon, only to discover survival comes at a terrible price. In Vietnam, chaos erupts as something far more primal than war is unleashed. A guardian spirit stalks the Hawaiian wilderness, while elsewhere, dark bargains and family sacrifices reveal the cost of protecting those we love.
From war-torn jungles to isolated islands, from broken families to blood-soaked streets, these stories delve into what it truly means to become the monster.
Across these tales, blood ties become curses: brothers face each other as man and beast, vengeance twists into horror, and the past refuses to stay buried. In lonely boarding houses, remote reservations, and fractured communities, the line between human and animal blurs as characters confront the terrifying truth of what they are—or what they’re becoming.
From self-inflicted destruction to inherited evil, from feral street survivors to biker cults birthing something new and unspeakable, Werewolves II is a relentless descent into hunger, violence, and the inescapable nature of the beast within.
The curse doesn’t end with the kill. It lives on in whatever survives.
Where the Tide Leaves its Dead–– Next Chapter Publishing
March 30 2026
By night, the sea returns the dead.
By day, the jungle eats the living.
Casey Jones has to survive both.
On a remote Pacific island, the ocean drags its dead ashore—sailors, fishermen, pirates—reanimated as soulless hunters for an ancient sea god. Armed with scavenged weapons and his hell pig, Puaka, Casey fights to stay alive.
But the island offers no refuge. Beyond the beaches lie cannibal caves, volcanic badlands, and desperate survivors praying to carved gods. When Casey and his friend Izzy are drawn to a coastal settlement promising safety, they discover something far worse than the dead.
As the tide rises, so does the army of the dead, and Casey must decide whether to continue his fight for survival by night…or risk everything to challenge the oceans god.
WHERE THE TIDE LEAVES ITS DEAD is a savage, tiki-soaked tale of survival horror packed with mythology and monsters. Dive in—before the tide turns.

1800: Burn Them All — Twisted Dreams Press (2025)
The message plays everywhere. On every screen. In every home. A cheerful chorus of voices singing a number no one can forget—1800—BURN THEM ALL—followed by a cold command.
Ben doesn’t question it at first. Not when the hornets start coming. Not when the stings turn deadly. Not even when the man who answers the hotline shows up with a rifle and starts thinning the skies.
But something is wrong.
The swarms aren’t just multiplying—they’re changing. Learning. Gathering. And the deeper Ben digs into the so-called solution, the more it becomes clear: the extermination isn’t ending the threat. It’s creating something worse.
When the insects begin to move with intent, and the line between hunter and hunted collapses, Ben is left with one impossible question—
what if 1800—BURN THEM ALL was never meant to save them?
