We are excited to announce some awesome news regarding the TALES OF THE LOST anthology. Bram Stoker Award-Winning editor Eugene Johnson has teamed up with Things in the Well publisher and editor Steve Dillon* to co-edit this amazing anthology for release in December 2019!

TALES OF THE LOST: VOLUME ONE

We all lose something…

We lose many things during our time in this universe. From the moment we are born we start losing time, and loss becomes a part of our life from the beginning. We lose friends (both imaginary and real), loved ones, pets, and family. We gain stuff and lose stuff, from our socks to our money. We can lose our hope, sanity, passions, our mind, and perhaps even our soul! In the end when death finds us, we end up losing everything... Don’t we?


Tales of the Lost takes a dark look at the things we lose and the ghosts we struggle with.

Featuring haunting stories from critically acclaimed masters of horror F. Paul Wilson, Tim Waggoner, Lisa Morton, Yvonne Navarro, David Wellington, Lee Murray, Stephen Graham Jones, Jess Landry, John Palisano, Chris Mason, Paul Moore, Eric J. Guignard, Jeff Strand, Ben Monroe, Christina Sng, and Kevin J. Anderson. With an introduction by S.G. Browne and a specially commissioned cover by Francois Vaillancourt. Featuring a hardback cover and interior artwork from Luke Spooner!
