There is nothing so delightful, or primal, as gathering around a fire to tell tales. You huddle closer to the flames to feel the heat on your face while the darkness gathers at your back. With nothing but open emptiness behind you, the ancient dread of the unknown creeps down your spine. You force yourself not to glance over your shoulder into the inky black. Is there any moment quite so frightening as when somebody freezes and whispers: What was that? Cordelia Kelly shares seven chilling stories of survival, darkness, and a hint of witchcraft in Then She Said Hush, including award-winning post-apocalyptic tale “Unfreeze.” Enjoy. And bring a flashlight.
