A Black Horror Anthology
by Circe Moskowitz
From haunted, hungry Victorian mansions, temporal monster–infested asylums, and ravaging zombie apocalypses, to southern gothic hoodoo practitioners and cursed patriarchs in search of Black Excellence, All These Sunken Souls features the chilling creations of acclaimed bestsellers and hot new talents.
Welcome to the Dark.
We are all familiar with tropes of the horror genre: slasher and victims, demon and the possessed. Bloody screams, haunted visions, and the peddler of wares we aren't sure we can trust. In this young adult horror anthology, fans of Jordan Peele, Lovecraft Country, and Horror Noire will get a little bit of everything they love—and a lot of what they fear—through a twisted blend of horror lenses, from the thoughtful to the terrifying.
"Each selection features fresh twists on familiar paranormal fare...Carefully constructed characters and worlds ruminate on myriad Black experiences while providing spine-tingling, escapist stories for fans of simultaneously gruesome and pensive scares." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"With stories that shift from reality-based fears of murderous home intruders into fever dreams of demonic pacts and flesh-eating zombies, All These Sunken Souls is a chilling horror anthology that hides its terrors among what's mundane." —Foreword Reviews (starred review)
"An entertaining and eclectic horror anthology centering Black characters sure to scare and delight...Black protagonists provide new perspectives on a genre that traditionally is somewhat limited in representation; these inclusive takes on well-known tropes offer readers not only delightful chills and thrills but also a new and necessary lens through which to view the fears that haunt us all in the night." —Kirkus Reviews
"A magnificently chilling collection that ranges from the gothic to the gory, from hospital hallways to haunted houses. Take my advice and don't read it after the sun goes down." —Alix E. Harrow, New York Times bestselling author of Starling House
"All These Sunken Souls breathes monstrous new life into the withered, desiccated husks of the familiar horror tropes. Each story is a gleeful reinvention for readers young and old alike, offering an ambitious and horrifying menagerie that shows the full breadth of what the horror genre is capable of." —Trevor Henderson, horror artist, illustrator, and creator of Siren Head
"A delightfully creepy and deliciously horrifying collection of tales that brings nearly done-to-death tropes back to life in unexpected and terrifying ways. Featuring a frighteningly talented pool of authors of some of the biggest names in YA horror, plus new voices that will claw their way into your heart, All These Sunken Souls is an absolute must read for all horror fans." —Aiden Thomas, New York Times bestselling author of Cemetery Boys, The Sunbearer Trials, and Lost in the Never Woods
