Nightmare Magazine 61: October 2017

NIGHTMARE is an online horror and dark fantasy magazine. In NIGHTMARE's pages, you will find all kinds of horror fiction, from zombie stories and haunted house tales, to visceral psychological horror.
This month, we have original fiction from Cassandra Khaw ("Don't Turn on the Lights") and Joanna Parypinski ("We Are Turning on a Spindle"), along with reprints by Brian Evenson ("Click") and Robert Shearman ("Suffer Little Children"). Over on "The H Word," Kristi DeMeester shares her thoughts on horror. Plus, we also have author spotlights with our authors and a feature interview with Josh Malerman.
"Stories are mongrels. It don’t matter whether they were lightning-cut into stone or whispered over the crackle of a dying flame; no story in the world has pedigree. They’ve all been told and retold so many times that not God himself could tell you which one came first. Yes, every story in creation. Including this one. Especially this one. You might have heard it before. There was a girl once. Her name was Sally. It could have been any other name, really. But let’s go with Sally. It’s solid. Round-hipped and stout, the kind of Midwestern name that can walk for hours and don’t mind it much when the sun burns its skin red. Anyway."
