A shadow moves at the corner of your vision. The stars blink wrong. Something deep within the earth begins to stir.
Where Darkness Lingers Volume II is the chilling follow-up to the acclaimed first collection, delivering a new descent into the uncanny. In these thirteen original tales of horror and science fiction, author Forrest Bradley Smith explores the fragile edge where reality fractures, and something older, stranger, and more terrifying peers through.
From cursed performances and haunted landscapes to existential nightmares in deep space, these stories travel across time and genre to uncover what festers in silence, solitude, and the dark.
Inside you'll find:
A sideshow troupe struggling to survive a harsh winter-and something worse
A dead astronaut returning with a message that defies all logic
A cornfield that watches back
A child who hears a signal no adult can understand
A civilization-ending secret buried beneath the permafrost
...and other unforgettable journeys into dread
Whether you love cosmic horror, folk terror, psychological unease, or speculative sci-fi with a dark twist, this collection offers something for every fan of intelligent, atmospheric storytelling.
Perfect for readers of Stephen King, Ray Bradbury, and Black Mirror.
Dare to return to the places Where Darkness Lingers...you might not come back the same.
