Monstrum: Echoes Of Terror by LadyEckland

In the shadowy depths of the unknown and the forgotten corners of the earth, a chilling collection of horror stories emerges, inviting readers into a realm where nightmares manifest. "Monstrum: Echoes of Terror" curates a bone-chilling anthology inspired by the masterful dread of H.P. Lovecraft, the macabre elegance of Edgar Allan Poe, the twisted imagination of Stephen King, and the grotesque beauty of Clive Barker. Within these pages lie tales of colossal creepy crawlies, lurking in the darkness, sea monsters that whisper madness from the abyss, and abominable experiments that defy the laws of nature and morality. Venture further, and you'll encounter prehistoric beasts that time has not dared to touch and alien horrors that gaze upon humanity with malevolent curiosity. Each story weaves a tapestry of fear, blending horror, body horror, and cosmic terror into a mosaic that pays homage to the giants upon whose shoulders this collection stands. "Monstrum: Echoes of Terror" promises to take readers on a journey through the visceral depths of fear and the eerie expanses of the cosmos, revealing that sometimes the most horrifying monsters are the ones we have yet to imagine.

The Talking Skull by Muki1997

An almost abandoned monastery, built on top of a cliff, hides a dark secret who is going to drive many wise men to insanity. This is my first attempt at Cosmic Horror, with clear tributes to H.P. Lovecraft stories, but still trying to be original. Hope you like it!

Green Unpleasant Land by Matt01344

Short Synopsis Green Unpleasant Land Fog shrouded Victorian London, but not the 1888 we'd recognise. There's a whiff of revolution in the air, not to mention lycanthropy in the shires. As Mr Eiffel's tower nears completion in Hyde Park, famed Egyptologist Sir Percy Tiverton returns with his latest find - a nameless book so mysterious not even the Royal College of Alchemists can decipher its runes. Alexander Faversham is England's foremost champion of derring-do, but his legend is built on sand. Loyal-to-a-fault manservant Bill might know more about his master's heroics than either are letting on. When the nameless book is stolen, Bill's entanglement threatens to bring his carefully constructed façade crashing down. There's something nasty lurking in the shadows and it wants its book back. Who would dare confront the tentacles slithering from the sewers? When the Empire needs a hero, it doesn't always get the one it expects. 80k words Gothic/Cosmic Horror/Alt History
