Welcome to issue eighty-two of Nightmare!

If you’re the outdoorsy type, our new short story by Simon Strantzas, “Antripuu,” might make your next adventure a little more terrifying. We apologize if you’re too frightened to enjoy that hike or camping trip! Our other original short story, “No Other Life,” by Isabel Cañas, should please both lovers of medieval history and fans of vampire lore. We also have reprints by Seanan McGuire (“Threnody for Little Girl, with Tuna, at the End of the World”) and Cody Goodfellow (“At the Riding School”).

In the latest installment of our column on horror, “The H Word,” Kaaron Warren looks into the weird and disturbing world of ghost photography. We also have author spotlights with our authors, and a book review from Adam-Troy Castro.
