Fresh Fear: An Anthology of Macabre Horror

FRESH FEAR: An Anthology of Macabre Horror is a collection of horror selected by editor William Cook, from some of the genre's best writers of dark fiction.This anthology includes 28 stories of horror that deal with the psychological and emotional realm of human fear. Tales steeped in psychological horror, sit alongside visions of strange worlds and inner landscapes drenched in blood, penned by some of today's leading proponents of the craft. 'Quiet horror' sits comfortably next to more visceral portrayals of the monsters that lurk deep within the human heart. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, famously once said, "where there is no imagination there is no horror" - the horror expressed by the authors in Fresh Fear show that imagination is indeed tantamount to excellent story-telling.

Included in the introduction is a selection from W.J. Renehan's The Art of Darkness: Meditations on the Effect of Horror Fiction.
