Get ready for a spinechilling journey into the heart of Halloween! Flash of the Dead: Halloween '24 is a thrilling anthology from Wicked Shadow Press, curated by the dynamic collectors of dark fiction Parth Sarathi Chakraborty and Rasiika Sen. This anthology packs an electrifying variety of flash fiction—65 in number—each story a little jolt of terror, perfect for the season when the moon is high, shadows stretch long and every creak could be a spectral stranger.

From classic hauntings to deliciously twisted folklore, monstrous creatures to psychological chills, Flash of the Dead celebrates every spooky flavor you could crave. It’s Halloween distilled into sharp, pulse-pounding tales that capture the excitement of trick-or-treating, the dread of footsteps behind you, and the eerie beauty of a fog-drenched graveyard. You’ll find stories that make you gasp, laugh nervously and double-check that your doors are locked tight.

So grab a blanket, light a pumpkin-scented candle and settle in! This anthology is your ticket to a Halloween night bursting with sinister delights and ghoulish surprises. Happy haunting, brave reader!
