A collection of horror stories by Gemma Files exploring deep places and human emotion.
Files uses her second collection to examine how emotional forces summon monsters from hidden realms. The narrative moves through diverse settings like the sea and the Weird West, featuring entities ranging from selkies to vampires. Each story connects supernatural events to universal human experiences such as grief and love. The work does not rely on traditional horror tropes alone but grounds its fear in psychological reality. Readers find themselves drawn into spaces where reality thins and ancient powers emerge. The collection stands as a study of how deep emotions can breach the barriers between worlds, bringing forth both human and non-human threats.
Published by Blackstone Publishing in 2023, this work continues Files’ exploration of horror traditions. It draws on gothic and supernatural fiction, referencing the Weird West and ancient mythological figures like selkies and voodoo priestesses.
