Six Troubles, Seven Sins

Type: Fiction Anthology, Horror/Dark Fiction | Date Published: June 21, 2024 | Amazon

Wrath. Sloth. Pride. Greed. Gluttony. Envy. Lust.

From horror alums Mallory Cywinski (Desperate Creatures, Twelve Months of Horror), A.D. Jones (Umbrate, Sacrificial Waters), Jason A. Jones (The Pumpkin Pie Man, Horrorscope), Karly R. Latham (Dark Village, Twelve Months of Horror), Charlie Steip (Sleepwalking, Twelve Months of Horror), and Sarah Wettberg (Twelve Months of Horror), comes a twisted tome of sinful short tales.

We six Troubles have opened our minds to the Seven Deadly Sins. (Purely for inspiration, we assure you…)

We present to you this unnerving collection for your consideration and wicked delight. Much like stories told over the glow of a campfire, while the smoke rises to the heavens, you may feel compelled to glance behind you, to glimpse what lies in wait … in the dark.

These stories of sin explore just how easily we are seduced by our vices ... and much like how a sin creeps into your mind accompanied by its devilish brethren, our stories encapsulate not one, but several sins in each dark tale.

Envy and Lust, Pride and Greed … they come in numbers and whisper in our ears, moving us like pawns on a chessboard urging us to indulge. But every action has consequences, and for better or worse, sometimes giving into our vices has consequences you don’t expect.

Mallory’s story, “Love Thy Neighbor” offers a peek behind the curtain of the every day, revealing the many secrets we all carry. But what happens when we act on our sinful urges? Envy, lust, and wrath mingle in a delicate dance set in idyllic rural farm country.
