Contains 4 stories
Madness of Terror
6 pp · horror-suspense

Jeffrey Waring, haunted by guilt and paranoia after murdering his paralyzed sister Cynthia to inherit her fortune, becomes obsessed with checking her tomb, convinced she’s risen from the dead. As strange voices and movements plague him, he battles a growing madness—only to discover too late that the horror was never her return, but a trap set by Doctor Kirk, who exposed his crime through a chillingly staged illusion.

Devil on His Shoulder
8 pp · horror-suspense

Mike Kent, a respected art critic, stumbles upon an ancient silver vase in the ruins of Eustace Kirby’s mansion, only to find it unnaturally heavy—then impossibly light after knocking out its stopper. As he struggles with strange urges and a growing sensation of something clinging to his shoulder, he begins to act on violent impulses, first killing a stray cat and then attacking a beggar, convinced an invisible evil spirit has taken hold. Now haunted by paranoia and the fear that he’s lost control, Mike seeks help from a rumored sorceress, desperate to understand—or destroy—the malevolent force he believes is on his shoulder.

Directions to Your Tomb
7 pp · horror-suspense

A desperate stranger collapses at an isolated inn, offering his fortune in diamonds to the owner, Matthew Dejong, a former convict. After murdering the man and hiding his body, Dejong flees with the diamonds and a mysterious map, only to be hunted by a tribe of warriors—only to escape their wrath and face a far more terrifying fate as his own guilt begins to manifest.

The Genius
6 pp · horror-suspense
Tom Lanfry

Tom Lanfry, a frustrated book critic, becomes consumed by his desire to write a masterpiece, driven to desperation after his fiancée leaves him. After a chance encounter with a mysterious stranger at a bar, he makes a fateful deal that grants him the "touch of genius" — but at a cost he may not be prepared to pay. As he works tirelessly on his novel, his mind begins to unravel, and the finished work bears the unsettling mark of something far beyond human creation.
