Summary

SCARY WESTERN SHORT STORIES
 
Scary Western Short Stories brings to life a haunting collection of eerie, thrilling tales set in the desolate and lawless landscapes of the Wild West. Crafted by artificial intelligence, this anthology of 14 unique stories transports readers to ghost towns, cursed canyons, and desolate mountain trails where the supernatural collides with the grit and solitude of frontier life.
 
From The Haunting of Bitter Ridge, where a drifter encounters the chilling remnants of an abandoned mining town and its ancient curse, to The Blood Moon of Blackthorn Canyon, where the legendary blood-red moon brings malevolent spirits back to life, each tale unearths the terrors hidden within the shadows of the Old West. In The Devil’s Brand, a mysterious mark spells doom for those who bear it, while The Phantom Rider introduces a ghostly cowboy who exacts vengeance on the wicked.
 
In The Hangman’s Noose, the gallows hold a dark power over the townsfolk, and The Cursed Canyon is a place few dare to venture, for the souls who enter often do not return. Every story combines rich, atmospheric detail with gripping suspense, weaving together a landscape of spectral gunfighters, ominous legends, and malevolent spirits.
 
This collection is perfect for fans of western lore and supernatural horror alike, inviting readers into a world where courage is tested, and the line between the living and the dead is perilously thin.

    In a quiet French town, a crumbling, locked-up manor stirs the curiosity of all who pass it. No one enters. No one speaks of what happened inside. But behind the overgrown garden and shuttered windows lies a story of love, betrayal, and a chilling act of vengeance. 
    When a visiting doctor presses for answers, he uncovers a tale that was meant to stay buried. A jealous husband. A secret lover. A sealed fate. The mystery of La Grande Bretèche reveals itself slowly, with devastating clarity. 
    Told through layers of memory and local legend, Balzac’s short story delivers a compact, suspenseful narrative with a deeply haunting payoff. 
    Perfect for fans of dark romantic suspense, gothic tales, and French literature with a sharp psychological edge.

    "What a beautiful, haunting and hued narrative of American living. I’m in love with this story and the way Tyriek White breathes life into these characters." —Jacqueline Woodson, MacArthur Fellow and author of Another Brooklyn 
     
    A poignant debut for readers of Jesmyn Ward and Jamel Brinkley, We Are a Haunting follows three generations of a working class family and their inherited ghosts: a story of hope and transformation. 
     
    In 1980’s Brooklyn, Key is enchanted with her world, glowing with her dreams. A charming and tender doula serving the Black women of her East New York neighborhood, she lives, like her mother, among the departed and learns to speak to and for them. Her untimely death leaves behind her mother Audrey, who is on the verge of losing the public housing apartment they once shared. Colly, Key’s grieving son, soon learns that he too has inherited this sacred gift and begins to slip into the liminal space between the living and the dead on his journey to self-realization. 
     
    In the present, an expulsion from school forces Colly across town where, feeling increasingly detached and disenchanted with the condition of his community, he begins to realize that he must, ultimately, be accountable to the place he is from. After college, having forged an understanding of friendship, kinship, community, and how to foster love in places where it seems impossible, Colly returns to East New York to work toward addressing structural neglect and the crumbling blocks of New York City public housing he was born to; discovering a collective path forward from the wreckages of the past. A supernatural family saga, a searing social critique, and a lyrical and potent account of displaced lives, We Are a Haunting unravels the threads connecting the past, present, and future, and depicts the palpable, breathing essence of the neglected corridors of a pulsing city with pathos and poise.
