It’s a collection of horror short stories by Indigenous authors centering Indigenous stories. And every single story hits perfectly. Some of them are very eerie and aesthetic, some of them feature cryptids and legends from Indigenous cultures, and some feature violence tinged with justice towards colonizers.
Will I ever see a tick or a petroglyph the same way? No. But so it is.
I am rarely truly disturbed by horror stories, but there’s a few in this collection that broke past even my tolerance level.
