The Unmothers by Leslie J. Anderson goes on sale August 6, 2024. Preorder your copy!Quirk Books: What do you love most about writing horror? Leslie J. Anderson: In many ways horror feels more honest. The fade to black or metaphor or pull away before the final blow feels a little patronizing to me. I enjoy when I do not have to hold back, to use a light hand, or to cover anyone’s eyes to what really happens in the world.

Ghost stories have been with us for thousands of years. The oldest ones, dating back to The Epic of Gilgamesh, included tales of monsters and spirit beings in the underworld, ghosts who held secrets for the living.

When something happens in the past, it isn’t just over and done with.

By Lisa KrögerThere’s a famous painting by Swiss artist Henry Fuseli called The Nightmare. Completed in 1781, it depicts a woman fainting off a bed, a gargoyle-like demon sitting viciously on her chest. A rich burgundy tapestry hangs in the background. From behind a curtain fold, a dark horse pushes its head out, surveying the scene. The night mare has become the nightmare. Don’t be fooled, though. Fuseli isn’t interested in a portrait of a shadowy hellscape.
