Four bone-cold encounters with something not quite human - the kind of stories that live in the dark between folklore and fact.

Hear from a forest patrol officer, a hunter in Oklahoma, a couple on a deserted Texas road, and one man haunted by both a shadow figure and a crawling thing in his home.

• The Tiny Glider — a miniature humanoid with the scent of blood in its wake.

Each story invites you into the quiet terror of things that shouldn’t be — bu...
