Harrowing Habits: And Other Queer Horrors

By: Cope, C. C.

Horror, Spice, and Everything Nice

Transformation, cloistered secrets, double-dealing deities, and forbidden loves collide in this scintillating collection of terror and sentimentality. From a young societal woman catching the attention of a fanged aristocrat, to a script supervisor who discovers a nightly ritual on a Hollywood backlot, or the curious case of an heiress whose best friend returns from a spelunking expedition inexplicably changed. Perfect for fans of Guillermo del Toro, Caitlyn Starling, and V.E. Schwab, this collection of six short stories and a novella is a cornucopia of sapphics and sharp talons.
