Other Sides by Simon Strantzas

In Other Sides, Shirley Jackson Award-winner Simon Strantzas invites you to explore the eerie fringes of reality, where the familiar twists into the unexplainable. A hungry house that demands a price from its occupants. A boy who may have glimpsed a ghost—or something far worse. A researcher journeys to a remote village in search of the strange herbaceous anomaly called the Witch's Clutch, only to discover folklore leads to terrible truths. With each story, Strantzas weaves an atmosphere of creeping dread and psychological unease, crafting a collection that lingers long after the last page. Other Sides is a masterclass in weird fiction—a world of quiet horrors, uncanny encounters, and folktales that turn slowly, inexorably, toward the ominous. Perfect for readers who savor horror that unsettles in profound and lingering ways, Other Sides is a journey into spaces beyond our understanding, where something is always waiting.
