Stories



Fantasy and Horror stories are probably the most recognized medium of the field. This month we have an excellent selection of fiction from writers all around the world, ranging in style from vampire stories to...well...vampire stories.

No, but seriously, actually the tone of the pieces this month vary from light fantasy to dark, moody horror with stories about vampires, dragons, psychotics and the dark little corners of your mind that nobody likes to think about. Enjoy!
