Not all nightmares are fiction. Some are remembered. Some are painted. Some are real.

Dark Descent: Whispers From Beyond is always open to nonfiction and artwork that lingers in the dark.
🩸We’re looking for folklore, essays, haunted memories, psychological reflections, myths, rituals, legends—even eerie visuals and horror-inspired art.

If it blurs the line between truth and dread, it belongs with us.

One click. That’s all it takes.

Dark Holme Publishing offers more than horror.
Strange stories. Shadowed spaces. Fiction that doesn’t fit the mould—and never tried to.

How far would you go to outlive a curse?
Every Gunner died at the age on their jersey.
Thompson, 23. Farmer, 43. Benny, 17. Danny, 61.
All of them—gone.
Except me.

I wear 99. And I can’t die. 🧬⚽🕯️

Scythed From the Same Cloth is a slow-burn horror steeped in nostalgia, survivor’s guilt, and a curse that clings like an old jersey you should’ve burned years ago.

Just one of over 100 microhorror stories in Dark Descent: Whispers from Beyond.
