Writers everywhere were issued a challenge—write an epic flash fiction story in under 1000 words.
But there was a twist, it couldn’t be just any story. It had to tell the tale of a creature that haunts the night; one that lurks in the shadows; one that hides in dark places.
Authors from the USA, UK and Canada met the challenge.
From the submissions received fourteen writers were selected; some with already established writing careers, others who are breaking out and these are their first works.
Within, you will find an eclectic collection of flash fiction that covers everything from the horrific to the humorous. There are real gems here—all waiting to scare you, thrill you, and make you laugh. Perhaps they’ll even make you wonder about what’s really going on out there while you’re asleep.
There is much more here than you’ve bargained for—and you’ll think twice before extinguishing your lights.
Read these stories in a safe place, preferably where you can bolt the doors and lock the windows, because tonight you will dream about Creatures of the Night.
The winning stories and authors include are:
â– Blood Money by Jay Raven
â– Demon Disease by Tina Hunter
â– The Full Treatment by Sarah Melton
â– When I’m Sixty Four by Matthew Stroescu
â– Paranoia by Marie Andreas
â– Hot Spell by R.L. Stuemke
â– Leprechauns on Ice by Stef Donev
â– Nightly Appetizers by Cynthia Latzko
â– Becoming Human by Heather Wildman
â– Signal To Noise by Paul Monks
â– Mistakes Bite by Tina Hunter
