We are thrilled to be revealing the book trailer for Dead of Winter, a new anthology from authors Sam Hooker, Laura Morrison, Alcy Leyva, Cassondra Windwalker, Dalena Storm, N.J. Ember, Daniel Buell, and Tiffany Meuret.
Set for release on January 26, 2021 and featuring a foreword by 2018 Bram Stoker Nominated Author Monique Snyman and edited by award-winning editor Lindy Ryan, Dead of Winter includes six new stories of Yuletide fantasy and terror from Black Spot Book’s bestselling authors, as well as additions from two promising new debut voices in the genre.
Despite the twinkling lights and steaming cocoa, the end of the year is the darkest time of the year—a season of short days, long nights, and cold skies. In this special holiday anthology, the authors of Black Spot Books mix Ye Olde Yuletide hauntings with modern-day holiday horrors to weave a chilling new collection of dark winter tales. From frozen forests stalked by eerie Christmas ghosts to rotting gifts of winter malice, the spirits of Christmas come home for the holidays in the Dead of Winter.
Dead of Winter is Black Spot Books’ second anthology. The first, A Midnight Clear [2019] won the anthology category of the 2020 International Book Awards and was named a finalist in the 2020 Silver Falchion Awards.
