ALL THAT'S LOST

May 2022, Black Shuck Books

“There’s a tiny gap between the stories we tell ourselves and those we tell others and that’s where you’ll find the truth.”

All That’s Lost is the second collection from award-winning writer Ray Cluley, bringing together 17 stories exploring the haunted, the strange, and the uncanny.

Lose yourself in the darkness here, and find yourself changed…

"There is pure joy in the sensation of being lifted entirely out of one’s own head, an experience which Cluley generously delivers." - Georgina Bruce, Interzone Digital

Probably Monsters is a collection of 20 dark, disturbing stories by the award-winning Ray Cluley.


You’ve been warned.


Here be monsters.

Originally published 2015, ChiZine Publications

"Excellent work - surprising, moving, and creepy as hell. And yes, chock full of honest-to-god monsters. Yet another great entry from the British horror scene." - Nathan Ballingrud, author of North American Lake Monsters

'THE REAPER'S GIFT'

IN THE ACCURSED

November 2021, Black Library

A Warhammer Horror anthology:

Sentient darkness presses against the inhabitants of the Mortal Realms and the Imperium of Man. In dystopian streets, anarchic desires surface, and the impressionable and malcontent find distraction in the wrong places. Lone families in heathen wastes risk their sanity to survive, and hardened souls inured by long wars face their greatest trials yet as evil seeks to weaken their resolve.

What will these people do when horror is upon them? What violence will they incite? What anguish shall they endure? And will they shoulder their fate like heroes or drag others down in their storm? Either way, the darkness cares not, for all cries of the accursed lend it strength...

The canon of Edgar Allan Poe, one of the foremost writers of dark and atmospheric fiction and poetry, offers readers haunted shores teeming with various erudite men brooding in the waning light over their feelings for unobtainable women. Yet, whether the tales or verses are grotesque or sinister, Poe's narrators are Outsiders, dealing with emotions that so many LGBT individuals feel: isolation and abandonment as well as loneliness and lost love. In the Shirley Jackson Award nominated Where Thy Dark Eye Glances, editor Steve Berman has assembled a range of tales that queer the prose and poetry of the Poe, the man himself, as well as dark and eerie stories about reading Poe's work.

'DRACULA'S NEW DRESS'

IN FEM-FANGS

Though people have been exploring the legend of the vampire for hundreds of years, the female vampire has been largely overlooked...until now. Pill Hill Press proudly presents FEM-FANGS, a collection of short stories focused on fanged girls of the night with a taste for human blood and a penchant for power, seduction and terror. Find your favorite turtleneck and sink your teeth into this monster of a collection. You're in store for some long, dark nights filled with beautiful, hungry creatures. Don't cry when you find yourself with two perfectly round puncture wounds on your neck...because you've been warned.
