Blood in the Bricks

An Urban Folk Horror Anthology

by James Bennett, Ray Cluley , Joanna Corrance, Dan Coxon, Lyndsey Croal, James Everington, Tracy Fahey, Matthew Hopkins, Timothy J Jarvis, Penny Jones, Kim Lakin, Tim Major, Phil Raines, Don Redwood, E. Saxey, Angela Slatter, Phil Sloman, Steve Toase, Harvey Welles, Ian Whates

Tales of the city redolent with ritual and drenched in dread. 

Folk Horror is primarily associated with isolated settings and weird beliefs. Traditionally the isolated setting is rural, but our cities have been around for a long time too, their histories constructed layer upon layer, their secrets long kept and buried deep. And there are other types of isolation than geographical remoteness: housing schemes and suburbs, gilded business districts and gated communities, industrial wastelands and crumbling tower blocks... 

Who knows what our old bricks were made of or what lies beneath our brightly lit pavements? Who knows what superstitions have been passed down the generations and who knows what goes on behind the locked doors of the community centre?

Editor Neil Williamson has assembled a cadre of gifted writers to explore these chilling issues and much much more.
