Summary
How much would you risk for love?The Lover’s Lie: Dark Stories of Catfishing, Drugs, and Doom is a nightmarish anthology where trust becomes fatal, obsession turns to ash, and online seduction always ends in death. These are not tales of romance but of manipulation, false promises, and the terrible price of believing in someone who never truly existed.Each story paints a different picture of betrayal: men lured into dangerous errands by phantom women who promise affection but deliver only doom. From desolate barns to abandoned towers, frozen lakes to burning festivals, the backdrop changes but the outcome never does. Every text message, every whispered declaration of love, every promise of a shared future becomes another step down into darkness.Within these pages, you will witness horrors like:A courier chained helplessly to train tracks, his body shattered beneath steel.A young man suffocating in an attic sealed tight, his phone glowing faintly in the dust beside him.A fisherman nailed beneath a pier, lungs filling with seawater as the tide rises mercilessly.A boy consumed in flames during a lantern festival, his body dissolving into smoke among false prayers of love.A student lured to an abandoned school, his lover’s name carved into his dying flesh by faceless tormentors.Every story is a descent into betrayal, where words meant to comfort instead ensnare, where devotion becomes exploitation, and where love itself is weaponized. The characters cling to hope, blinded by the sweetness of messages and the illusion of companionship, but hope is always the cruelest trap.The Lover’s Lie is not just a horror collection. It is a warning about the dark corners of digital intimacy. These stories expose the shadows where catfishing becomes crime, smuggling becomes slavery, and love becomes the cruelest executioner.Told in a chilling, atmospheric style, this anthology is designed for readers of psychological thrillers, horror anthologies, and tales of betrayal who crave stories that grip with icy fingers and refuse to let go. Each page drips with dread and inevitability, leaving you questioning how well you truly know the person on the other side of the screen.Beware the glowing phone. Beware the sweet words. And above all, beware of love that feels too perfect to be real.Because in The Lover’s Lie, love is always the first step toward doom.
