Black Mare Books serves up some fun-sized treats from Artemis Greenleaf, Holly Dey, A.B. Richards, and Claire A. Murray.
In this grab-bag of Halloween shorts, you’ll find an assortment of killers and creeps. You may want to log off your Zoom meeting to play with the nice birdies. Perhaps kick back with a premium pizza before you go for a long walk in the dark woods? Or maybe you’ve wanted to run away to join the circus? Sounds like more fun than keeping a date with Death.
But be warned: the monsters may not be who you think they are.

A word to the wise: Cancel your camping trip and stay out of the woods.

Lifted straight out of the grim world of the Brothers Grimm (with a cameo by Hans Christian Andersen), Artemis Greenleaf, A. B. Richards, and Holly Dey give modern updates on some scary fairy tales. Cinderella, Snow White, and others have a contemporary new lease on life… and death.
A word to the wise: Be careful what you wish for—you might just get it.
Black Mare Books returns with a fourth course of sinister delights from Artemis Greenleaf, A. B. Richards, Pandora Martindale, and Holly Dey. This year’s anthology peels back the surface to reveal monstrous truths—where identity becomes weapon, curse, and trap. Wander ancient cottonwoods, prowl an abandoned amusement park, and meet an HOA with teeth. Dominatrices, detectives, software, shapeshifters, black‑eyed children, and interdimensional secrets all wait in the dark. From stolen names to fatal games, each tale twists the self into something unforgettable—and dangerous. In these pages, identity isn’t just fluid; it’s fatal.
A word to the wise: The scariest mask is the one that fits.

A word to the wise: whatever you buried, it remembers your name.
