EVERYDAY HORRORS
Everyday horrors, the unexpected twists encountered during an otherwise normal day. The skewed perspectives, those moments of transformative paranoia when everything appears as it might through a funhouse lens. The dreamlike narratives and rhythms which fracture consensual reality into genre-bending rides. When life becomes unmoored and the prosaic becomes surreal. These are the worlds portrayed in this new collection of 20 previously uncollected stories by Steve Rasnic Tem, winner of the World Fantasy, British Fantasy, Bram Stoker, and the Horror Writer Association’s Lifetime Achievement awards.
Included are such stories as “A Thin Silver Line” (originally scheduled for The Last Dangerous Visions), the folk horror “Gavin’s Field,” an aging man’s final road trip in “The Old Man’s Tale,” the Halloween musings of “When They Fall,” the personal apocalypse of “Privacy,” the Jack the Ripper revelations of “Monkeys,” the pandemic Wendigo tale “An Gorta Mór,” the cosmic horror “The Things We Do Not See,” a bizarre journey “Within the Concrete” from ParSec, and the heartbreaking “Memoria” from The Deadlands.

SCARECROWS: Appalachian Tales
Steve Rasnic Tem grew up in Lee County Virginia, the western most county in the state. It was the heart of Appalachia, isolated, yet beautiful. He has said “Growing up in that small place, it was hard to imagine ever becoming a writer. To me wanting to be a writer was like wanting to become an astronaut or a movie star. I didn’t believe such things ever happened for people like us.”
Now in his seventies, Steve Rasnic Tem’s writings include more than 500 published short stories in a variety of genres, 17 collections, 8 novels, and miscellaneous poetry and plays. He has won the World Fantasy, Bram Stoker, British Fantasy, and International Horror Guild awards. In 2024 he received the Horror Writers Association Lifetime Achievement Award.
Scarecrows: Appalachian Tales collects the best of Tem’s writings about his native Appalachia, 2 poems and 24 short stories (including 5 never before published tales) concerning the farmers, miners, teachers, preachers, lawmen, itinerants, housewives, elders, children, and creatures who call these southern mountains home. The tales represent a range of genres: fantasy, horror, crime, humor, and realistic local color fiction of the region. Available in both paperback and ebook formats.
