If you have any triggers at all, you should look up CWs for the individual stories. There are some disturbing plots in this book. Pretty much every story has the potential to be upsetting, but that’s dark fiction for you. 🤷🏻♀️

Overall, I really liked it! My favourite stories were:
- Kushtuka by Mathilda Zeller (very strong opener!)
- Hunger by Phoenix Boudreau
- Snakes Are Born in the Dark by DH Trujillo
- Scariest. Story. Ever by Richard Van Camp
- Dead Owls by Mona Susan Power
- Sundays by David Heska Wanbli Weiden
- The Scientist's Horror Story by Darcie Little Badger (too real as someone with a life sciences degree)
- Collections by Amber Blaeser-Wardzala
Graphic: Violence, Rape, Child abuse, Gore, Miscarriage, Murder, Torture, Abortion, Body horror, Racism, Schizophrenia/Psychosis , Vomit, and Xenophobia
Moderate: Vomit, Animal death, Classism, Colonisation, Terminal illness, and Toxic relationship
