Trigger Warning: Curses Edited by Christine Morgan

Sometimes, you’re warned. Sometimes, you should know better. Sometimes, you DO know better and still do it anyway. Sometimes, you just piss off the wrong person. Maybe you’ve got it coming, or maybe you don’t deserve it.

The word curse evokes many things: folk horror and witches, cursed items or places, a cycle of familial abuse, hate, and violence.

These stories delve into a myriad of visions brought to life by some of the most twisted and brilliant minds in horror today.
