Accept? Y/N: Horror for the Algorithm Age

By James West

Eighteen stories. Short. Sharp. Unforgiving.

Accept? Y/N is a collection of contemporary horror stories where the mundane mutates and modern life peels away to reveal something old, hungry, and watching.

Inside, you'll find cursed update patches, soul-hungry hourglasses, housing flips gone fatally wrong, haunted algorithms, and parking attendants who know far too much. Some monsters hide in code. Others live in rituals, architecture, or the spaces grief leaves behind.

From suburban sacrifices to digital possession, each tale explores the thin line between what we trust-and what we should fear.

A mother is on borrowed time.
A video game patches itself into reality.
A teacher spreads belief too far.
A sleep-debt app starts collecting interest.
And at a desert diner past midnight, God and the Devil argue over the fate of the world-until a waitress breaks the tie.

For anyone who's ever feared the cost of convenience, the trap of nostalgia, or the echo in an empty hallway-this collection was written for you.
