A note for parents
This is an adult horror anthology published by a specialty press, not a children's or YA title. The collection explicitly focuses on grotesque monsters, dark psychological themes, and existential dread—core horror elements meant to unsettle and disturb. While individual stories vary, the cumulative content and mature editorial vision make this unsuitable for younger readers; older teens and adults with established horror interests may appreciate it.
What happens when we make monsters? What happens when we make monsters of ourselves? Grotesque beings lurch from our darkest dreams. Vicious beasts stalk our twisted pasts. Lost souls haunt our deepest regrets. They are the blood on our hands. They are the obsessions in our heads. They are the vengeance in our hearts....What happens when we make monsters? What happens when we make monsters of ourselves? Grotesque beings lurch from our darkest dreams. Vicious beasts stalk our twisted pasts. Lost souls haunt our deepest regrets. They are the blood on our hands. They are the obsessions in our heads. They are the vengeance in our hearts. They are Miscreations: Gods, Monstrosities & Other Horrors. Edited by Bram Stoker Award-winning editors Doug Murano and Michael Bailey. Featuring a foreword by Alma Katsu, and illustrations throughout by HagCult.
