About Beneath a Pale Sky

Beneath a Pale Sky collects eight stories of horror, including two original novellettes, that will take you from the high-security ward of a mental hospital to the top of a Ferris Wheel on an ocean pier. These stories will bury you in the rubble of an earthquake, pull back the veil on a soul’s journey into the afterlife, and turn a small midwestern town into the secret domain of cross-dimensional gods. Combining old-school horror with the modern weird, BENEATH A PALE SKY will take you places you’ve never been before, and show you sights you won’t soon forget.

Praise For Beneath a Pale Sky

 

…highlights the author’s skill at capturing disasters, gore, and cosmic horror.”
– Publishers Weekly

“This is a must-read collection for those who enjoy horror in its short form by authors who can morph two-dimensional words on the page into very real terror from which readers cannot hide, even if they want to.”
– Booklist

“Fracassi draws you in with a hand as sure as the tap of an orchestra conductor’s baton. The stories in Beneath a Pale Sky are elegant, unsettling, and beautifully wrought. One of the best collections I’ve read in a long while.”
– Christopher Golden, New York Times-bestselling author of Ararat and Red Hands
