Cosmic Horror Monthly #19
(2022)January 2022
(Book 19 in the Cosmic Horror Monthly series)
An anthology of stories edited by Charles Tyra
We begin with a telling of the toll a haunting statuette can take on a struggling artist in “A Faithful Rendering.” Then, from the legendary Laird Barron, a brand new original dark fantasy that harkens back to the turn of the century pulp that inspired Cosmic Horror Monthly in “Uncoiling,” followed by a Dunsanian tale about an ancient cult and an even more ancient manuscript in “Demodorum.”
We were lucky this month to sit down with Wendy N. Wagner, editor of the delightfully terrifying Nightmare magazine. We captured her thoughts on the state of horror and publishing during a pandemic just for our readers. Getting back to fiction, we’ll encounter a weird war-time tale in “He who Looks Through the Trees,” and a desperate sorcerer in “Into Chaos.” Then we explore a life-altering meteor shower and its effects on two families in “The Sound of the Stars.” At last, we’ll descend deep into the crypt for a classic from one of the true progenitors of the weird tale with “The Plattner Story” by Mr. H.G. Wells.
Genre: Horror
