Today’s the day.
After months of haunted edits, bone-deep rewrites, and a slightly concerning number of conversations about cursed artefacts, I’m absolutely thrilled to say Lingering Curses is officially out in the world.
It’s live. It’s real. It’s ready to worm its way under your skin.
This anthology brings together twelve standalone horror stories, each centred around a cursed object—some ancient, some modern, all hungry in their own quiet way. These aren’t just spooky trinkets. They linger. In minds, in blood, in memory.
From cursed veils to ancient chessboards, haunted wardrobes to whispering combs, each story promises dread, disorientation, and a lingering sense that something followed you home.
This collection is for anyone who’s ever said “I’ll just pop into that antique shop real quick” and immediately regretted it. If you like horror that’s atmospheric, character-driven, and slightly unhinged (in the best way), Lingering Curses was written for you.
So here it is—the part where I gently ask (read: enthusiastic tone) for your support:
Every purchase tells the all-powerful algorithm that yes, readers do want more quietly cursed short horror fiction from slightly sleep-deprived indie authors.
Thank you so much for following this project, for cheering it on, and for letting me whisper a few nightmares into your brain.
Now then. You’ve got a box to open.
Be careful what’s inside.
Some curses don’t like to be forgotten.
