Some shadows live closer than you think.

 

Behind every blaze, every heartbreak, every empty street, something waits.

 

A father who can’t save his son.
A lone survivor hunted across a ruined wasteland.
A woman in scarlet who leaves ruin in her wake.
A girl who can’t let go of her dying companion.

 

In this collection of four dark tales, everyday life is stripped bare to reveal the terror, grief, and hunger lurking underneath. Where the Dark Things Dwell is a haunting exploration of what we fear most: not the monsters outside, but the ones that live within us — and never leave.
