At Night They Whisper

Inspired by masters like Stephen King and William Friedkin, this bone-chilling collection confronts the grimmest edges of human experience across eight captivating stories. From sinister obsessions to brutal rituals, At Night They Whisper ventures into the recesses of skewed morality to uncover aberrant possibilities few dare depict. While the classic intrigue of ‘She’s Still with Us’ pays homage to old-school detective fiction, these largely original plots seize upon unexplored darkness. In ‘The Forty-Stone Finding,’ freedom and hope itself perish, while ‘Choking Monopoly’ investigates the warped dynamics lurking in family ties. Through stylistic flair and profound realism, author Alex J. Thomas immerses readers in creeping dread whilst also not forgetting to deliver a healthy dose of pulsating startles. If the deepest darkness seems unreal, At Night They Whisper dares all who encounter it: ‘what if...?’
