For the 67th issue of The Sirens Call Zine, our sub-theme is Halloween! In addition to general dark fiction and horror, we'll be on the lookout for anything about Samhain, Mischief Night, All Saints Day, or just fall themed tales in general. Pumpkins, autumn leaves, and apple cider are all on the table, as long as they're somehow twisted into a tale of horror!

We'll be accepting short stories, flash fiction, drabbles, and poetry that fit within the horror/dark fiction genre. We welcome reprints as long as you hold the copyright to the piece. Your piece can be scary, sullen, emotive, freaky, elegant, have a dark satirical edge to it, or be outright terrifying beyond measure! - visit sirenscallpub.com for details....

We just released The Sirens Call Summer 2024 Zine and we'd like to say thank you to all those that made it a fantastic issue. This will take a few posts, so lets start with our Features!

A very warn thank you to Mike Lera who pens a film-related column for the Zine titled Mike Lera's Corridor of Horror - his take on Jason vs. 'Jason' is great fodder for those who love Friday the 13th copy-cat films!

A huge thank you to our Featured Artist, world-renowned photographer Johnny Joo, for allowing us to present 15 of his gorgeous images depicting the lost, forgotten, and abandoned!

We can't thank our Spotlight Poet enough for allowing us to shine a light on her and her work. Thank you very much, Alex Grehy! Keep an eye out for Alex's story featured in the Zine as well!

Our Featured Project, StokerVerse, is the brainchild of Chris McAuley and Darce Stoker. It's a world where all things come from or revolve around Bram Stoker. Games, TV series, books, manga, comics, collectibles - if it relates to the StokerVerse, there's a taste of it in there for you. A very grateful thank you to Chris McAuley and Darce Stoker for allowing us the opportunity to present their world to you!

A monstrous thank you to Douglas Ford, our Featured Author, who took us to Paris with him on an uncanny journey. Travel with him in his mind as his feet walk the streets with photographer Jerlin Ford. Thank you, Jerlin, for allowing us to use your beautiful shots of Paris in the article.

And finally, our Featured Novel, 'The Trick', by Douglas Ford. In issue 66, we're treated to a 4 page excerpt from The trick - just enough to wet your appetite for more!

The summer warmth is always welcome after a long winter, but what happens when it becomes unbearable? The 66th issue of The Sirens Call has a sub-theme of Can't Take the Heat. This theme is open to interpretation. Warm up that creative brain and show us your take on what it means! Scorching heat can come from many places—a burning fire, happenings in the kitchen, a witch's brew, global warming, a flame thrower, Hades, the Sun itself, or anything you can imagine! Or, it can take on other forms… It's up to you to cook up something good! In addition to this issue's sub-theme, we're always looking for well-constructed tales and poetry that deliver solid horror and dark fiction. We'll be accepting short stories, flash fiction, drabbles, and poetry that fit within the horror/dark fiction genre. We welcome reprints as long as you hold the copyright to the piece. Your piece can be scary, sullen, emotive, freaky, elegant, have a dark satirical edge to it, or drive fear right into our hearts! - visit sirenscallpub.com for details....

Spring is a time of rebirth, but not all things born are gentle and kind. For the 65th issue of The Sirens Call Zine, we have a sub-theme of Born Ravenous. With the coming warmth of Spring, life rises in all its forms. And how hungry would those things be? What would satisfy the voracious appetite of a new-born being, whether it be natural or brought to life through other means? Feed us a tale of what eager-mouthed things might feast upon that would make the hungriest of stomachs lose its appetite! In addition to this issue's sub-theme, we're always looking for well-constructed tales and poetry that deliver solid horror and dark fiction. We'll be accepting short stories, flash fiction, drabbles, and poetry that fit within the horror/dark fiction genre. We welcome reprints as long as you hold the copyright to the piece. Your piece can be scary, sullen, emotive, freaky, elegant, have a dark satirical edge to it, or make us sleep with the lights on! - visit sirenscallpub.com for details....

For the past eleven years, we’ve celebrated the death of the year with a death themed Winter call. This year we’re still celebrating the death of 2023, but we’re doing it a little differently. This issue has a sub-theme of When Hell Freezes Over! We want you to tell us what would happen if Hell were to freeze over and the flames that euphemistically burn below were extinguished. Where would the demons go? Would they make their way to the mortal plain? Would the snuffing of the fire release the souls trapped there? Would a fissure open and swallow part of our world? Or would the Morning Star himself be on the hunt for new turf? Where would the vile souls go if hell were no longer there to collect them… Think mayhem, think madness; think what if Hell froze over? Beyond this issue’s sub-theme, we're always looking for well-constructed tales and poetry that deliver solid horror and dark fiction. We'll be accepting short stories, flash fiction, drabbles, and poetry that fit within the horror/dark fiction genre. We welcome reprints as long as you hold the copyright to the piece. Your piece can be scary, sullen, emotive, freaky, elegant, have a dark satirical edge to it, or rattle us to the core! - visit sirenscallpub.com for details....

01/07/2023

In our world, every day is Halloween and we can’t get enough of it! The 63rd issue of The Sirens Call Zine has a sub-theme of Halloween. We’re also open to pieces celebrating Samhain, Punkie Night, All Soul’s Day, El Día de los Mu***os, Guy Fawkes Night, Mischief Night, Hungry Ghost Festival, Pomona and Obon; you get the idea… Celebrate the dead, and what happens when the veil thins, and you’ll make us happy little horror campers! A small caveat to the restrictions on this call: please do not elevate or defame religion vigorously in your submission unless it’s vital to the storyline. We aren’t looking to celebrate religion, we’re looking to celebrate ghosts, ghouls, and all that can go wrong when the oogie-boogies come out to play. Beyond this issue’s sub-theme, we're always looking for well-constructed tales and poetry that deliver solid horror and dark fiction. We'll be accepting short stories, flash fiction, drabbles, and poetry that fit within the horror/dark fiction genre. We welcome reprints as long as you hold the copyright to the piece.

It isn’t a matter of making sure details are correct, but I want the readers to explore a new place besides the characters....

Who doesn’t love a little fun under the summer sun? But what if we aren’t the only thing that wants to romp in the warmer weather? The 62nd issue of The Sirens Call has a sub-theme of Local Legends. Not just any kind of legend, we’re talking cryptid lore! We’d prefer that you create your own hometown beastie and leave the well-known ones alone, but if you feel your story is strong enough to compete with originality, feel free to adopt your well-known local cryptid and take them out for a joyride. As always, the pieces must be horror or dark fiction – no Harry and the Hendersons stories, please. We’ve seen the movie and enjoyed it, but it’s not our cup of publishing goo. Beyond this issue’s sub-theme, we're always looking for well-constructed tales and poetry that deliver solid horror and dark fiction. We'll be accepting short stories, flash fiction, drabbles, and poetry that fit within the horror/dark fiction genre. We welcome reprints as long as you hold the copyright to the piece.
