Dark Tales From Elder Regions: New York will be the first in an annual anthology by Myth Ink Books.
"If you love New York City in all its shapes and guises (and who doesn't?) and are a fan of well-crafted horror fiction of every variety, you'll relish the new Myth Ink Books collection of 20 vividly weird stories all set in The Big Apple, Dark Tales from Elder Regions: New York. These highly inventive tales tap into the city's luridly storied past as well as the gritty opulence of its present and are rich in historical detail and cultural nuance. It's almost like a trip to NYC and far cheaper than an airline ticket. So grab your reading glasses, pack your carry on bag, and get ready for some delicious shudders, cheap thrills, and heady visions in the city that puts the Gothic into Gotham, with this fine selection of stories that bring chilling nightmares to the city that never sleeps."-David Barker, author (with W. H. Pugmire) of The Revenant of Rebecca Pascal
"Dark Tales From the Elder Regions: New York is an anthology book that will give you goosebumps and make your inner child go in the fetal position more than once when you're reading it. ... Dark Tales is not the kind of 'in your face' horror that tells details of blood letting and gore. It permeates your mind little by little and you find yourself thinking of that creature in the tunnels out of the blue long after you've read the story. The words will capture your attention, but the stories themselves will sneak up behind you and slit your throat. And these authors are seriously, creepily great at building a scene and delivering in unexpected ways."-Dave Royce, Horror Cabin
