Synopsis

Dreaded Invocations presents transgressive spins on pulp-style short story horror fiction. Read the garish tales of those too terrified to speak about their dark experiences.

What troubles plague a man who seeks chat app-based therapy from the confines of a secret prison cell? Are those menacing calls to a babysitter really coming from inside the house? Does a vast treasure or mysterious fate await a double-crossing diver inside a sunken ship? Will a steampunk experiment's artificially constructed man meet a friend or foe inside a mysterious cave? What vengeance does a self-exiled silent movie star have in store for former colleagues against whom he holds a grudge?

Discover the dread-inducing answers in this collection of 14 offbeat short horror stories. Fans of 1970s/1980s/1990s-style horror fiction may appreciate the modern spin presented in this book, which draws inspiration from classic comics, pulp magazines, and drive-in cinema.
