Author Description

This month, we open with an invitation to a truly unforgettable underground soirée in “Free Party, Late.” Then, in part one of a Liggotian terror by Matthew M. Bartlett titled “The Scapegrace,” a young boy is put in the care of his eccentric grandfather. In Nicholas Kaufmann’s “Lucienne,” a petty thief burglarizes the wrong house and finds more than treasures inside. Up next, we follow a trendy blog as it details the steps for the perfect flensing ceremony in “Your 13-Month Bridal Planner for The Feast of One Flesh.” In “Ouroboros,” we’ll witness the result of a horrifying cosmic discovery via a brand-new powerful telescope. Then, a drifter recounts a story of grisly cosmic horror with an unbelievable ending in “Ulterior motives.” Stick around for a weird satire in which the weather is a marionette controlled by the whims of great elder things in “Weather Department Communications in Disarray Amid Incantation Professional Sick-Out” before we descend to the crypt for the penultimate installment of our presentation of Blackwood’s “The Willows.”
