📝 Description: Fogbound From 5

Peter Mark May contributes to this collection of five original horror stories published by Hersham Horror Books. The volume explores how fog conceals various terrors, ranging from ghostly encounters to shape-shifting monsters. It also addresses buried childhood memories and creatures born from mist-shrouded air. One narrative involves atrocities that have no ending during a train ride into terror. May is listed as one of the authors alongside Alison Littlewood, Neil Williams, Mark West, and Adrian Chamberlin. The book draws on traditions of supernatural fiction where the environment itself becomes a source of dread. This anthology suits readers who enjoy short-form horror that relies on atmosphere and hidden threats rather than explicit gore. It may not appeal to those seeking long novels or historical romance. The stories are organized as distinct tales within a single volume, unified by the theme of obscured vision and unknown dangers lurking in the mist.
