"Rio's tales do more than just entertain and unnerve, they articulate and connect us to some sunken knowledge within, where the shadows are." - Alan Warner, Booker Prize Nominated Novelist

Asian mythology and folk tales crossed with the supernatural horror of Edgar Allan Poe, Henry James, and Arthur Machen!

Drawing on local folk tales of vengeful banshees, dusk-dwelling monsters, ghouls hiding in the woods, and other forms of the undead, this collection transports listeners to the darkest abyss where demons forever reside: the human mind.

A woman went missing a week before her wedding. A man recalls his nightmarish encounter with the devil. Letters sent from beyond the grave. A call from deceased loved ones. Limbs that have a mind of their own.

These ghostly tales of revenge, greed, and desperation writhe and squirm in the dark corners of modern-day Indonesia. Rich in cultural undertones that are uniquely Asian, combined with classic horror. These stories are equal parts grotesque and poetic, irreverent and spiritual, unusual and universal.

Revised and expanded including 3 brand new stories.
