“Just how well do you truly know the myths and legends surrounding this time of year? I’m not talking about the Jolly Old Elf. We’ve heard plenty enough of those stories. No, what I’m talking about are the old stories of the Winter Solstice – tales that retain a foothold upon the darkest corners of the human psyche to this day. Tales that continue to terrify and delight both the wary and unwary. Christmas and Other Horrors is just that: a delightful anthology of stories that look beyond the trappings of the modern day holiday spirit back to a time when unknown magic and darkness held sway. Some things should not be forgotten. ”
— Bud • Quail Ridge Books
Summary
Hugo Award–winning editor, and horror legend, Ellen Datlow presents a terrifying and chilling horror anthology of original short stories exploring the endless terrors of winter solstice traditions across the globe, featuring chillers by Tananarive Due, Stephen Graham Jones, Alma Katsu, and many more.
The winter solstice is celebrated as a time of joy around the world—yet the long nights also conjure a darker tradition of ghouls, hauntings, and visitations. This anthology of all-new stories invites you to huddle around the fire and revel in the unholy, the dangerous, the horrific aspects of a time when families and friends come together—for better and for worse.
From the eerie Austrian Schnabelperchten to the skeletal Welsh Mari Lwyd, by way of ravenous golems, uncanny neighbors, and unwelcome visitors, Christmas and Other Horrors captures the heart and horror of the festive season.
Because the weather outside is frightful, but the fire inside is hungry . . .
