“Superstar editor Datlow makes no missteps.” —Publishers Weekly


A prison guard and a convict have an affair fueled by the hallucinations of fungal spores. Squatters arrive in a weird train station, where they unearth a strange idol. Researchers discover skin thieves instead of normal turtles. A mezcal-tasting tour turns utterly terrifying. An old woman stitches a portal that is disrupted by a nameless cat.


Discover the Mythos as you’ve never experienced it before. These dizzying new spins on classic Lovecraftian themes will leave you disoriented, but sane (we hope—we make no promises).
