The No Sleeper Train

38 Short Horror Stories

All aboard The No Sleeper Train, where every ticket is one-way.

They say this train runs on stolen souls. They say if you fall asleep, you might wake up somewhere else…or worse, as someone else. Among its many stops are:

• A missed subway stop becomes a one-way ticket to an alternate, deadly reality.
• A spam email turns the whole world against you.
• A childhood photo reveals a twisted face watching from the woods.
• A hidden laboratory in the woods houses monsters that are still waiting, still hungry.
• A beloved family dog pulls something ancient and dark from the depths of the sea.

Step aboard with modern horror master Michael Squid, conductor of nightmares, as he guides you through these and other destinations of pure terror.

Mind the gap, take your seat, and whatever you do…don’t fall asleep.
