Creepy Tales 23

There are places where the land remembers. Where the water holds grudges. Where the dead don't rest-they recruit. In this chilling collection of folk horror and supernatural dread, five ordinary souls cross the line from the living world into territory claimed by older, hungrier things. A haunted radio frequency lures a young soldier into the Vietnamese jungle, where a thousand-year-old hungry ghost whispers his name through the static-and demands a burial before the new moon.
On a cursed stretch of blackwater river, a fake kidnapping goes bloodily wrong when a bent-backed witch, lynched a century ago, reaches through the storm to claim the bodies and twist the living into her image. In a Louisiana bayou, a hollowed-out police dispatcher answers a call that fills him with something ancient-and turns him into the perfect lure, sending unit after unit into the swamp where a shape-shifting mimic wears the skins of the empty.
Creepy Tales 23 drags you out to the margins of maps, across continents and centuries, where the only thing thicker than the fear is the silence that comes after the screaming stops. Lock your doors. Don't look at the water. And never, ever answer the call.
