Horror Made

622: “Dear Cousin Gavin” by Aaron Vlek

STORY

Most families have secrets. But secrets always yearn to be known.

Join us as we explore the dark secret of one family. A secret with roots that run deep-- a secret that refuses to stay buried.


About the Author:

Aaron Vlek is a storyteller who works with the trickster mythos in its role as bringer of delight and proponent of disquieting humors. Some of her (yes, her) stories center around the goings on of the jinn, and of a universal imagining of the Native American character, Coyote. Some works are historical in setting while others occupy a contemporary and urban landscape. She also indulges frequently in the reimagining of classic themes of horror and the occult. Aaron is a graduate of Sarah Lawrence College.

Domine Canè, a short piece of speculative horror with a historic theme, appeared in the April 2015 issue of Bards and Sages Quarterly, Vol. VII, Issue II. The Black Meal, a work of speculative horror appeared in the October 2015 issue of Outposts of Beyond. At the Kids’ Table appeared in the 2015 Christmas Edition of Chicken Soup for the Soup. Eight additional stories have been accepted for publication throughout 2016.

621: “The Taking of Leon Winchell” by Lee Forman

 

STORY

When Leon spends a day at the Renaissance Faire drinking more than he should, strange things begin to happen. On a downward spiral for a while, has he hit bottom, or is there further to fall? Strange things are afoot in that little tent that seems bigger on the inside.


About the Author:

Lee Forman is an author residing in the Hudson Valley, NY with his daughter and four cats. He’s been a fan of horror literature and cinema since his fascination with the macabre began in childhood, watching old movies and reading every novel he could get his hands on.

He’s a third generation horror fan, starting with his grandfather who was a fan of the classic Hollywood monsters. He spends most of his time writing short fiction, reading, and hiking trails in the Catskill Mountains. In October 2014 he won 3rd place in the Writer’s Carnival Short Story Contest hosted by Sanitarium Magazine and in 2015 he was a competitor in David Wellington’s Fear Project. He’s currently writing a serialized novella titled Silence in the Willow Field.

Recently Lee penned an episode of The Lift. An story podcast that’s a favorite of Your Librarian.

TWL-Cover-620

STORY

Waking up after a long night of drinking, a man finds he has somehow acquired a very unique talent - he immediately knows anything he needs to know exactly when he needs to know it. The question is, why? And, more importantly, what is the price of this strange gift?


About the Author:


Rob E. Boley grew up in Enon, Ohio, a little town with a big Indian mound. He later earned a B.A. and M.A. in English from Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio. He’s the author of The Scary Tales series of dark fantasy novels featuring mash-ups of classic fairy tale characters and horror monsters. His fiction has appeared in several markets, including A cappella Zoo, Pseudopod, Clackamas Literary Review, and Best New Werewolf Tales.

His stories have won Best in Show in the Sinclair Community College Creative Writing Contest and the Dayton Daily News/Antioch Writers’ Workshop Short Story Contest. He lives with his daughter in Dayton, where he works for his alma mater. Each morning and most nights, he enjoys making blank pages darker.

619: “A Job’s a Job” by TD Trask

TWL-Cover-619
STORY

Vince, the owner of a convenience store in a small New York town finds himself suddenly in need of a new night manager.

The perfect applicant shows up, but what will happen if he hires him? And, what makes him such a good fit for the position?


About the Author:

terry_pic_200x200
TD Trask is a writer of horror. A self-described reformed Scottish-Irish barbarian, he lives in Binghamton, NY with his wife, Dena and their two feline overlords, Ralphie and Gracie.

He has lived on both American coasts, has gotten his kicks on Route 66 more than once, visited Area 51, received an abrupt military invitation to leave Area 51, and is one degree of separation from Mel Gibson, Lou Ferrigno, James Whitmore and Bill Maher.

His first published novel, “Still Waters”, is about a man who forms a deep and unexpected connection with a most unusual neighbor. “Legend of the Tiger” is an epic fantasy-thriller depicting the dangerous mission of a band of domestic animals trying to protect our planet from ecological terrorism. His latest effort, “Deadsville”, co-written with author Dale Elster, is an anthology of short, throwback-style horror stories set in fictional Rock Creek, NY, where strange and terrifying things happen to everyday, rural people. Works-in-progress include “The Callers”, a horror story set once again in Upstate’s Rock Creek, as well as his next short story collection, “Banquet of Souls”.

RW-3: Three Tales of Terror


STORIES

Let's REWIND! From Season One comes a story from Nancy Rosenberg England! We also drop two fresh scary short tales from Josef Matulich.

Just for extra fun, our rewinds feature an opening that pays homage to classic shows from The Golden Age of Radio that inspired The Wicked Library.

About the Authors:


Josef Matulich is an author, costume/make-up artist, and retired mime. His work runs towards horror & comedy so black it is almost ultraviolet, because the only proper response to the world is to laugh or crawl under your covers for a bit of therapeutic whimpering. His Arcanum Faire novels, “Camp Arcanum” and “Power Tools in the Sacred Grove”, are published by Post Mortem Press. He has a horror/comedy screenplay trapped in pre-production Hell. When not occupied with all of the above, he helps run a costume/vintage store with his wife.
