☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAn anthology issue featuring two science fiction and fantasy tales. "Report from Space: A-Okay" follows the preparation and launch of the first manned space flight, as Commander Shepard is selected as the astronaut to take the historic journey into space alongside a team determined to achieve true space travel. "The Other Monster" involves a motion picture producer who discovers a scientist's theories about undersea civilization and uses the concept to create a monster film, recruiting publicity man Felix Catte to promote the production—but when Felix emerges from the ocean in a fish costume, a photographer captures him on film, leading to comedic complications as the image threatens to expose the stunt.
A young woman named Alascia, watching the historic launch of Commander Alan B. Shepard from Cape Canaveral, becomes unexpectedly drawn into a surreal, dreamlike journey that mirrors the intense training and psychological strain of the early space program. As she navigates a series of disorienting, gravity-defying scenarios, she confronts the isolation and pressure faced by the Mercury astronauts—each test a reflection of their mental and physical endurance. The story blurs the line between witness and participant, leaving her suspended between reality and the weightless void of space.
Felix Catte, a publicity man for a monster movie, stages a series of increasingly elaborate beach stunts pretending to be a real sea creature, using a costume to scare locals and generate buzz. As his pranks draw national attention and spark genuine fear, a young scientist who inspired the film’s premise confronts him, outraged that his research is being mocked and twisted into a public spectacle. Felix, undeterred, plans his next stunt—only to face a growing sense of unease when the truth about the costume’s uniqueness begins to unravel.
A young woman moves into an isolated New England house haunted by the legend of Amy Rector, who vowed to remain there forever after being betrayed by her lover. As strange occurrences unfold, the new resident begins to hear whispers and feel unseen presence, wondering if the ghost of Amy still lingers in the house.
