A man is haunted by an apparition that appears like his dead wife; sweet corn enthralls the descendants of a town settlers; A bunch of hikers are harassed by a clown; a woman grieving the loss of her family moves to a cabin surrounded by Ominous aspens; a man moves rural cemeteries and collapses a grave; the sins of a father inherited by his son; a vengeful spirit takes revenge on a group of gangsters.
This collection of EM Oteros is inspired by the strange experience growing up in a small town in upstate New York. Where the remnants of its bloody history can be found in the soil itself.
These stories feature the broken, hopeless, and grim individuals that populate the haunted hills beyond the Big City.
These horrors will be familiar to anyone who has lived in a small town. These horrors are local.

In the world long before written history, Croh and his nomadic tribe are doing their best to survive. With their food gone and bodies exhausted, Croh finds a caldera. Through luck, he stumbles upon a pass through its rocky walls, leading to their salvation.
Every tree and plant produces food, the lake is filled with fish, and Croh thinks he found a place where they could make a permanent home.
Only the caldera wasn't a home, it was bait. Once complacent and comfortable, Croh and his tribe come under attack by something that lurks in the night.

And a stranger who happens to be in the middle of it all.

Are you ready to go to Hell?

Have you ever wondered why it can be so uncomfortable to be in your skin? Does it have something to do with how you look in the mirror? Could it be that you've eaten too much? Maybe you've even gotten yourself in quite the predicament, letting yourself get hurt...

These tales are those of what one man's skin tells him when he suddenly develops a strange condition that causes it to tell horrid things to him.
