Diet Riot: A Fatterpunk Anthology features twelve fat-positive horror tales of people who come into their own, celebrate their curves, and save the day. There are babysitters and bakers, thieves and roller derby stars. Young women unsure about their bodies meet demons and water spirits who offer assistance–in their own way, of course. Danger lurks in hospitals, in the mysterious occult shop in the local mall, and in a house filled with cats. Campers, trash collectors, and house flippers alike uncover nasty secrets underground. A myriad of horrors await you–none of which comes at the expense of fat bodies. It’s time to reclaim the "f" word.

Trick or treat, trick or treat! Hungry ghouls crave fresh meat… A recovering addict faces the ultimate test when an old friend puts him through a terrifying ordeal. Two brave souls spend the night in a haunted house, only to emerge forever changed. And a cursed photographer goes to horrific lengths when their vision slowly decays… Scare Street is proud to present a new collection of diabolical delights. Twelve nightmarish tales of terror lurk within this sinister tome. Each one is a treat for shivers and shrieks. And the only tricks you'll find are the ones your mind plays on you, as you feverishly turn another page… Were those footsteps you heard, creaking across the floorboards? Was that whispering outside the window? Or just the whistling of the wind? The sounds grew closer, louder. A horde of tiny ghouls scamper into your room, saliva dripping from their razor-sharp fangs. And you realize there is only one treat they crave. The sweet taste of human flesh… This volume features to following stories: 1. Poor Boys in Poorhouses by Peter Kelly 2. Bitten by A. J. Hartson 3.

"Dive in! Welcome to TERROR IN THE TRENCH, the first anthology from Dead Sea Press. Fifteen fantastic authors. Fifteen thrilling tales of aquatic and nautical horror. From magic rags to sunken wrecks, from deep-sea sirens to monsters of the Marianas, this collection will crush you ..."--From back cover.

This collection, told in twelve stories, encompasses tales situated in a variety of culinary-related worlds. The themes run the gamut of horror, and underlying tones are anti-capitalist, transgressive at times, comedically unsettling at others, and unapologetically queer. An ode to food and other culinary-related settings, this collection plays with the horror recipe to produce stories that run between deeply unsettling to quiet to sometimes campy and bizarre. This manuscript includes stories about: a famous chef with a maniacal obsession with recreating memories out of signature dishes, a drug-induced demonic reality TV show that puts contestants through the ringer, blood farms, fungal wormholes, corrupt canneries, and monstrous gods who season their soups with human suffering, among others. Inside you'll find unhinged chefs, untapped food sources in the deepest, darkest corners of the earth and in space. You'll heat things up with tales of greed, of love, of systematic transgressions. Of mystery and gods and the perils of media. Of exploration and family and dishes best served cold. I hope you like the taste of iron. Open wide, and don't forget to chew.

A strip club owner and a manicurist have a lot in common. One of those things is being psycho killers. The ultimate horror rom-com you never knew you needed in your life.
