Halloween Bites 2024: Fairy Tale Frights

Black Mare Books serves up a third helping of fun-sized treats from Artemis Greenleaf, A. B. Richards, and Holly Dey. In this enchanted cauldron of Halloween shorts, you'll find an eclectic mix of monsters and mayhem inspired by favorite fairy tales.

Whether in the cruel concrete jungle or a murky misty forest, see if you can recognize some old friends. Granted, they've changed since the last time you hung out. Lifted straight out of the grim world of the Brothers Grimm (with a cameo by Hans Christian Andersen), Artemis Greenleaf, A. B. Richards, and Holly Dey give modern updates on some scary fairy tales. Cinderella, Snow White, and others have a contemporary new lease on life... and death.

A word to the wise: Be careful what you wish for-you might just get it.
