Dark Matter Magazine Halloween Special Issue

Contained within this anthology are dark stories and works of art that explore the shadow side of reality. They are disturbed works that journey hopelessly through the downtrodden fringes of society, across the deepest reaches of space, and into the darkest, most troubled corners of the mind. Enter if you must, but beware.



The first ever special issue from Dark Matter Magazine celebrates the chilling horrors of Halloween. This issue includes twelve original horror fiction stories, one reprint story, five horror poems from four different poets, two art features, an artisan spotlight, two short comics, and dozens of full-color illustrations throughout.
