You never know what's hunting you, while you're hunting it.

Eleven of the deadliest writers from across Turtle Island have crafted stories for you calculated to chill, thrill, and kindle your worst imaginings. Zegaajimo brings together tales of monsters and the macabre, terrifying transformations, strange places and unexpected wonders. These stories warn of billionaires with hidden intentions, spark vigilance for ominous figures that might appear on doorsteps, and caution you to let the river keep what belongs to it.

But these stories of supernatural settings and dreadful deeds are more than speculative fiction, they are also reminders that monsters are already in our midst, that the known can be just as frightening as the unknown, and that the slightest mistakes can have dire consequences. Read these tales alone to yourself, or better yet share them with friends-especially around a fire on a dark winter's night, when all you can hear is the cracking of branches, and the wind in the trees is as cold as your sweat.
