The Horror Collection: Decay Edition
(2026)(Book 44 in the THC series)
An anthology of stories edited by Kevin J Kennedy
Everything decays.
Bodies rot. Memories fade. Nature turns hostile. The dead refuse to remain buried. And sometimes, the thing that is decaying is humanity itself.
In The Horror Collection: Decay Edition, fifteen dark and disturbing tales explore what happens when the natural order begins to break down. A struggling writer discovers an orchard whose fruit comes with a horrifying price. A wedding reception becomes a feeding ground for the dead. A grieving man watches his home and his memories disappear beneath an impossible infestation. A tourist pays the ultimate price for disturbing a sacred offering. Elsewhere, vampires, undead warriors, ancient spirits, monstrous children and a digital plague all reveal just how fragile life can be.
From isolated forests and cursed marshes to war-torn landscapes, haunted homes and a world collapsing under the weight of its own sickness, these stories take decay in every imaginable direction.
Decay is not always the end.
Sometimes, it is only the beginning.
Genre: Horror
