Restless

A collection of ten stories of horror and speculative fiction to chill, intrigue, and inspire. In Raven McAllister's The Language of the World, a young woman returns home to see her ailing father... and to discover the truth behind the ghostly voices he claims to hear, while Jack Box by Aryan Bollinger delves into the complex relationships and unfinished business one man holds onto from beyond the grave. In Uncle Eddie by Robert Crow, dark secrets in one girl's family present both terrible turmoil and salvation, and Gordon Grice's Sugar tells the tale of a man confronted with an impossible threat to his loved ones. Mophead by Simon Lee-Price is the unsettling story of a man left alone with a monster while, in Michael Leonberger's Princess Petrify (Queen of Dead Things), the monsters are those that come from a young girl's mind. The Reveal by Joshua Rex shows just how heavily the past can hang on an unquiet mind although, in Lost Things by Michael "Bats" Weiss, it's the world around one woman that is fighting to drive her crazy. Going Nowhere by Kevin Wetmore sees a young man struggling to shake off the stultifying grip of his small town - whatever the cost - and, in Andrew Wilmot's Grudge Match, a woman grieving the loss of a life she loved begins to embrace a darker path toward her future.
