About this product
Product Information
A collection of horror-inspired flash fiction, featuring over 40 new stories from literary, horror, and emerging writers-edited by Lincoln Michel and Nadxieli Nieto, the twisted minds behind Tiny Crimes- Very Short Tales of Mystery and Murder In this playful, inventive collection, leading literary and horror writers spin chilling tales in only a few pages. Each slim, fast-moving story brings to life the kind of monsters readers love to fear, from brokenhearted vampires to Uber-taking serial killers and mind-reading witches. But what also makes Tiny Nightmares so bloodcurdling-and unforgettable-are the real-world horrors that writers such as Samantha Hunt, Brian Evenson, Jac Jemc, Stephen Graham Jones, Lilliam Rivera, Kevin Brockmeier, and Rion Amilcar Scott weave into their fictions, exploring how global warming, racism, social media addiction, and homelessness are just as frightening as, say, a vampire's fangs sinking into your neck. Our advice? Read with the hall light on and the bedroom door open just a crack. Featuring new stories from Samantha Hunt, Jac Jemc, Stephen Graham Jones, Rion Amilcar Scott, and more!

Reviews
A The Millions Most Anticipated Book of the Month "An anthology of horror fiction from some of today's most innovative names in fiction. The stories are uniformly short, which means you can read the book in one spooky sitting, or spread the scares out." -- O, The Oprah Magazine " Tiny Nightmares is absolutely perfect if you have a hard time focusing on anything right now and if you love to be scared . . . It's bone-chilling, timely, thought-provoking, and a lot of fun." --Arianna Rebolini, BuzzFeed "A collection of bite-sized horror stories from a sprawling cast of new and veteran writers. In the book, no monster is too outlandish or too real--there is horror in vampires who mend their own broken hearts, just as there is horror in global warming and online radicalization." --Scout Brobst, Willamette Week "An exquisite collection of short stories perfect for spooky season . . . Whether you prefer a classic ghost story, a near-future dystopia, or a far-future tale of space horror, you'll find something to your liking here . . . An excellent treasury of short horror fiction that belongs on the shelves of every reader who enjoys a good little scare." --Doreen Sheridan, Criminal Element "Masterful . . . In fewer than 1,500 words, each of these vivid, visceral tales engages with horrors with striking immediacy. This carefully crafted and genuinely scary collection is sure to impress." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Outstanding . . . These flash fiction stories should be read during the day lest they lead to tiny nightmares for the readers . . . Highly recommended."-- Booklist (starred review) "These are achingly brief but exquisitely crafted fragments of horror . . . The book is delightfully unpredictable . . . Fans of innovative horror films like Get Out and Us will have a blast . . . Sick and twisted and troubling: Reading it is like stumbling on an old horror movie on TV in the middle of the night." -- Kirkus Reviews "Fascinating, compelling, and entertaining horror stories told with 1,500 words or fewer that lack for nothing in the anxiety and dread department. Each tale balances word count and terror with the accuracy of a marksman, creating characters and situations that reel readers in . . . A better entry into the world of horror as it stands today would be hard to find. The short, but never sweet, tales surprise as they unsettle and terrify." -- Library Journal "Lincoln Michel and Nadxieli Nieto prepare a healthy serving of horror to inject straight into your head, heart, blims, and viscera . . . A fusillade of fear." --Eric Ponce, BookPage "I could gorge myself all day and night on these macabre, hellish little literary bonbons-- Tiny Nightmares is an absolute treat." --Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body and Other Parties and In the Dream House "Like a spider on a pillow or a mass on an X-ray, the stories in this collection might be tiny, but they produce outsize fear, revulsion, and wonder. Be warned and be delighted." --Benjamin Percy, author of Suicide Woods, The Dark Net, Thrill Me , and Red Moon "Try reading one of these tiny nightmares each evening before bed, and see if these worlds don't seep into your dreams. The eeriness of this kaleidoscopic collection is matched only by its exuberance. A fun, dazzling, and horrifying ride." --Helen Phillips, author of The Need, A The Millions Most Anticipated Book of the Month "An anthology of horror fiction from some of today''s most innovative names in fiction. The stories are uniformly short, which means you can read the book in one spooky sitting, or spread the scares out." -- O, The Oprah Magazine "These tales might be small, but they have lasting power." --Jordan Snowden, The Seattle Times " Tiny Nightmares is absolutely perfect if you have a hard time focusing on anything right now and if you love to be scared . . . It''s bone-chilling, timely, thought-provoking, and a lot of fun." --Arianna Rebolini, BuzzFeed "A collection of bite-sized horror stories from a sprawling cast of new and veteran writers.

These short stories are scary as hell and best of all, you can finish each one while you''re actually sitting on the beach. If the summer is a little too sunny, this book is a great way to get your moodiness on." -- Fatherly , Best Summer Read "An exquisite collection of short stories perfect for spooky season . . . Whether you prefer a classic ghost story, a near-future dystopia, or a far-future tale of space horror, you''ll find something to your liking here . . . An excellent treasury of short horror fiction that belongs on the shelves of every reader who enjoys a good little scare." --Doreen Sheridan, Criminal Element "Utterly spectacular . . . How can you not be drawn into this book? . . . There are so many astonishing turns of phrases and details in these very small stories." --A. Poythress, The Rumpus "Masterful . . .

Despite their diminutive size, these tales promise to pack a punch." -- Chicago Tribune , 1 of 25 Hot Books for Summer "Forty writers explore 'the criminal, the illegal, and the depraved,' including Benjamin Percy.

The eeriness of this kaleidoscopic collection is matched only by its exuberance. A fun, dazzling, and horrifying ride." --Helen Phillips, author of The Need Praise for Tiny Crimes "For those who crave instant gratification, this collection of bite-sized crime stories from well-known names and rising talents will whet your appetite. Ultra-short pieces, most only a few hundred words, feature fictional tales as well as real-life crimes from authors like Elizabeth Hand, Adam Sternbergh, Brian Evenson, Amelia Gray, and Carmen Maria Machado." -- Harper's Bazaar "An intriguing take on crime/noir writing, this collection of 40 very short stories by leading and emerging literary voices--Amelia Gray, Brian Evenson, Elizabeth Hand, Carmen Maria Machado, Benjamin Percy, Laura van den Berg and more--investigates crimes both real and imagined. Despite their diminutive size, these tales promise to pack a punch." -- Chicago Tribune , 1 of 25 Hot Books for Summer "Forty writers explore 'the criminal, the illegal, and the depraved,' including Benjamin Percy. His 'We Are Suicide' is a gem about alienation and how it may leave a 'stain . . . bigger' than we see. These mini-mysteries will fit in your pocket." -- Star Tribune (Minneapolis) "These bite-sized tales of murder and mayhem are absolutely perfect. . . . You're bound to love this book, full as it is of depravity, double crosses, and intrigue--perfect for giving you chills on the hottest of days." -- NYLON "Very short but very satisfying tales of mystery, villainy, and murder. . . . The perfect companion in between dips in the ocean, this is a must-read for crime fans." -- Bustle

Beyond great price. The media itself (CDs) were in NM (near mint) condition. Packaging was in fair condition, so stating Good in the description was reasonable if not downplaying the media itself. Nothing to complain about. Shipping was free and arrived exactly a week later (5 business days). Would definitely recommend and do business with seller again! A++

SecondSalecom is one of my go to sellers, because they have a large selection and I can usually find the book or movie that I want from them at a low price if not the lowest price on eBay. Also, when I buy three books/movies I get a fourth book/movie free. Shipping is also free. This was a great transaction. The DVD was packaged well, shipped promptly and is just as described. I will be back to buy again. Thank you!!
