  It's 1968, and the Watry-Ridder family is feared and respected in equal measure. The local farmers seek out their water charms, and the teenagers, their love spells. The family's charms and spells, passed down through generations of witches descending from the Black Forest, have long served the small town of Friedrich, Minnesota. 
   
   
   
  Eldest daughter Elisabeth has just graduated high school—she is expected to hone her supernatural abilities to take over for her grandmother, the indomitable Magda. She's also expected to marry her high school sweetheart and live the rest of her life in Friedrich. But all she can ask is, why her? Why is her path set in stone, and what else might be out there for her? 
   
   
   
  She soon discovers that magic isn’t the only thing inherited in her family. That magic also comes with a great price—and a big family secret. The more she digs, the more questions she has, and the less she trusts the grandmother she thought she knew. Who is Elisabeth without her family? She must ultimately decide what she's willing to sacrifice for her family, for their secrets and their magic, or risk it all to pave her own way.

  All she wanted was to save her friend, so she made a deal with the darkness, but her good intentions came with a steep cost, and it's so much more than she bargained for. 
  Magick always comes with a price. This is the lesson that Alex Hendricks, a young practitioner, learns when she is forced to confront a terrifying entity set on claiming her soul for his own. Secrets from her past are revealed, and she must decide whether to meet the entity's demands or sacrifice herself, allowing him to end her life and condemn her to eternal torment. This short tale follows Alex on her journey over the course of two days time as she battles supernatural forces and comes into her own power. But, will it be enough to save her life and retain command of her own soul? 
  Note from the Author: Dealings in the Dark is a horror novella that deals with the dangerous consequences of magick usage. As such, the story you are about to read contains graphic scenes depicting physical violence, gore, mention of the deaths of a parent and grandparent, mention of child death and harm, limited depictions of dementia, and depictions of demonic creatures and forces. If any of these topics are disturbing to you, you may not wish to proceed with this text.

And the people you read about in history were real live people, who were good and bad, and glad and sorry, just as people are now-a-days."E.

  Call it a premonition. Call it intuition. Call it anything you like, but Pennsylvania State Trooper Jerry McNeal simply thinks of it as “that feeling.” 
  That feeling may come on without warning, so intense he can’t breathe. 
  Or, it may be a gentle nag that pulls at him until he decides to do something about it. He never quite knows what “it” is until he gets there, but when he arrives, he always knows he’s found what he is looking for. 
  During one of the biggest snowstorms of the year, Trooper McNeal feels that familiar stir. An unease that grows with each flake that falls. Its intensity pulls at him until Jerry has no choice but to venture out onto the treacherous roads, following an invisible pull that grips at his very soul. 
  Tonight, that feeling is going to take Trooper McNeal into a blizzard when the streets are supposed to be empty to save a life that would have otherwise been lost. 
  Only tonight, Trooper McNeal is not going alone…

  "A Dream of Red Hands" is a short story by Bram Stoker. It was first published in the July 11, 1894 issue of The Sketch: A Journal of Art and Actuality, London.
  The first opinion given to me regarding Jacob Settle was a simple descriptive statement, "He's a down-in-the-mouth chap": but I found that it embodied the thoughts and ideas of all his fellow-workmen.
