Midnight Wanderings

    I found the serial killer I was hunting. He was sitting next to me at my friend’s birthday dinner.

    Your fortune cookie knows who wronged you. And it knows what’s coming for them.

    The firewood you’re burning doesn’t just tell stories. It shows you how you’ll die.

    I fell through my client’s lawn and found a secret graveyard. Not of people, but of their RVs.

    This collection of twenty-one terrifying tales peels back the everyday world to reveal the nightmare underneath. From a group of friends who stumble upon a silent, ritualistic campground where the other campers are anything but human, to a photo technician who discovers a terrifying figure lurking in his customers’ snapshots, these stories prove that the greatest horror is the one you never see coming.

    The most terrifying thing isn’t the monster under your bed. It’s the one you invite into your home for dinner.
