Sometimes I Scare Myself: Three chilling stories

A dinner party. A quiet house. A roadside stop. Three familiar setups. Three terrifying turns.

In Never Kill the Medium, a thirtieth birthday dinner turns deadly when a playful séance spirals out of control – and the guests cover up a death without realizing they’ve left the ritual unfinished.

In The Nightmare House, a postpartum mother begins to suspect something is wrong with her family’s new forever home. The house whispers. The neighbors watch. And every family who has lived there has died or disappeared.

In All Curses Are Final, a group of friends stop at a roadside store with a hand-painted warning: ‘All items cursed. Curse lifted at time of sale.’ They laugh it off – until one of them finds an unpaid item in her bag. Snowed in at a remote cabin, they soon discover the curse is only the beginning.

Dark, twisty, and impossible to put down, this chilling collection proves that the most ordinary places can hide the most horrifying secrets.
