Shock Totem 9: Curious Tales of the Macabre and Twisted

Shock Totem 9: Curious Tales of the Macabre and Twisted

Shock Totem celebrates its ninth issue, featuring fantastic tales of nightmares, monsters, ghosts, and severed digits!

Inside you will find not only a brand new, previously unpublished tale by Stephen Graham Jones, but also an interview with this modern master of words. Kathryn Ohnaka presents â€œBuddy,â€ a twisting, slithering serpent of a tale. The words are pure poetry, with fangs. â€œSaturday,â€ by Evan Dicken, follows, creeping and crawling and filled with Things that whisper of doom.

Similar whisperings can be heard in Bracken MacLeodâ€™s â€œThirteen Views of the Suicide Woodsâ€ and most of you will know the voices. Tim Liederâ€™s darkly rhythmic â€œHey Manâ€ will get you toe-tapping and â€œin the mood.â€ With a touch of science fiction, Emma Osborneâ€™s â€œThe Box Wifeâ€ is sure to leave you uncomfortable. The box wife is one and many, but youâ€™ll recognize all.

Stephen King once called Jack Ketchum â€œthe scariest guy in America.â€ What scares the scariest guy in America? Karen Runge. And youâ€™ll know why after reading â€œGood Help.â€ Peter GutiÃ©rrez provides the poetry with his outstanding â€œAnteroom.â€ Closing out the fiction in this issue is S.R. Mastrantoneâ€™s â€œAlan Roscoeâ€™s Change of Heart,â€ a tale that chips away at a well-mined vein--the near-death experience--but manages to produce an untouched gem.

In addition to the previously-mentioned conversation with Stephen Graham Jones, F. Paul Wilson is also interviewed. The seventh installment of our music-meets-horror serial, â€œBloodstains & Blue Suede Shoes,â€ tackles the 80s and Catherine Grant provides the editorial, a scary piece that hits close to home for creators and readers of horror.

All that and more!

Come see why Shock Totem is billed as â€œ...one of the strongest horror fiction magazines on the market todayâ€ (Hellnotes).
