Winterking by Erica Ruppert [horror]

Winterking by Erica Ruppert [horror]

Winterking by Erica Ruppert Snow drifted down on the still backs of the geese in the river.

What October Brings: A Lovecraftian Celebration of Halloween, edited by Douglas Draa, Celaeno Press, 2018. Cover art by Daniele Serra, info: celaenopress.com.

Halloween, a time for laughing children in white bedsheets and superhero costumes. A time for chocolate candy, and pumpkins, and Trick-or-Treat. A time for dark things everywhere to slink out of the shadows and into our lives, reminding those unlucky few that our charades of Halloween cannot erase the centuries of history and pain behind the facade. What October Brings celebrates the dark traditions of the autumn rituals, of Halloween and Samhain, in homage to the uniquely fascinating fiction of H.P. Lovecraft. Masters of the short story offer you a ‘once in a lifetime’ Trick-or-Treat experience... perhaps your last!
