Horror in Pleasantville: Stories from the Archives

By Caleb Finn

Ever get the feeling that nothing is what it seems?

A best friend who's dead... but whose body won't stay that way.
Old family videos that don't replay the past, but reveal a sinister glimpse of the future.
A funhouse where the mirrors show a terrifying version of you... and it wants your life.
A supermarket where the customers aren't shopping for food, but for you.

In this chilling collection, the ordinary turns uncanny and the everyday becomes dangerous. Each story twists familiar settings into something unsettling, surprising, and unforgettable. After reading these tales, you may never look at your neighborhood the same way again.

From the author of Archives of Despair comes Horror in Pleasantville: Stories from the Archives, a collection of dark, gripping short fiction designed to keep you turning pages long past midnight.

Do you dare to face what's waiting in the shadows? Or would you rather leave the lights on?
