Synopsis

Dare to enter the world of the paranormal to engage the spirits of those that once lived and monstrosities once believed never to exist. It’s here in the realm of death where the living engage in the unspeakable with souls of the dead in sixteen disquieting tales of the supernatural from horror’s modern masters. From hellish specters summoned from beyond the veil with treacherous intent for humankind, to a young boy whose special powers seem governed from beyond the grave, Death’s Realm delves into the abnormal, the ghostly and the infernal.It’s only here that a grieving son’s demon can beckon him to a secluded cemetery plot in the dead of night, where a preternatural murder-for-hire has extreme repercussions, and when the revenant of a dead mother seeks vengeance on her dying daughter.Welcome to Death’s Realm. You may be alone now, but not for long.With horror fiction from Stephen Graham Jones, Hank Schwaeble, John F.D. Taff , JG Faherty, Rhoads Brazos, Aaron Polson, Jay Caselberg, Paul Michael Anderson, Gregory L. Norris, Brian Fatah Steele, Karen Runge, Simon Dewar, Martin Rose, Jay O'Shea, John C. Foster, Jane Brooks and Matthew Pegg.

About this title

Review:

"DEATH'S REALM is a triumph, pressing a universal experience through a refracting prism and revealing to us bold colors and nuanced hues of form and experience we had not hitherto dreamed existed. It is provocative and challenging without ever succumbing to the temptation to deliver a narrative kick to the head." - FANGORIA

"Grey Matter Press continues to publish high quality horror/speculative fiction with their anthology DEATH'S REALM. Editors Anthony Rivera and Sharon Lawson have selected an eclectic collection of stories that showcases a wide range of moods, themes, and styles, and yet they all ingeniously highlight the cracks and fissures that occur when the world of the living and the world of the deceased overlap." - HORROR NEWS NETWORK

"This is a brilliant anthology, one of the best I've read in a very long time. Each tale is rock solid. The writing is intense, intelligent and interesting. The authors produce magic on the page and the editors are the alchemists.- GINGER NUTS OF HORROR

"DEATH'S REALM is truly a great collection...not your typical ghost or haunted house stories. The level of talent contained within the pages and the publisher's commitment to outstanding dark fiction is apparent." - THE HORROR BOOKSHELF

PRAISE FOR GREY MATTER PRESS:

"In less than two years, Grey Matter Press has managed to establish itself as one of the premiere purveyors of horror fiction currently in existence via both a series of killer anthologies--SPLATTERLANDS (2013), OMINOUS REALITIES (2013), EQUILIBRIUM OVERTURNED (2014)--and John F.D. Taff's harrowing novella collection THE END IN ALL BEGINNINGS (2014)." - FANGORIA

"I would read any of their books without question based on the merit of past releases."- THE HORROR BOOKSHELF

"The dark, all-encompassing theme seems to be the trademark of Grey Matter Press. When asked for a referral for a good short story collection I often state without hesitation to the very press that has enchanted my reading attention." - Dave Gammon, HORROR NEWS
