Author Description

We’ll start with a weird story of weight loss taken to the extreme in “163.3.” Then in Patrick Barb’s “The Secret Society of Schrodinger’s Children,” we’ll explore the nature of existence. Next up, discover a terrifying retelling of an old sea shanty in “Dragging Bones from the Ocean.” Then a strange scientific discovery gives way to a horrific natural disaster in “Ambiguation” by CHM alum Alex Wolfgang. Enjoy the nod to one of the great weird horror writers of our time in “Doctor Gotilli and Mr. Clark.” Then, the trip home for two women becomes dangerous after hitting a strange creature in “Interstate 80.” We will begin to wind things down with a post-apocalyptic horror story called “The Sunbathers” before descending deep into The Crypt for a short but effective classic by Ambrose Bierce that you may or may not be familiar with called “The Boarded Window.”
