Fear has a mind of its own. Phobophobia gathers tales that dive headfirst into the world of irrational fears—the ones we don’t talk about, the ones we laugh off, the ones that linger long after we’ve turned out the lights. From the absurd to the surreal, these stories explore what happens when anxiety becomes reality and logic offers no escape. No fear is too strange, too small, or too surreal for the pages of this book. Step inside. The things you didn’t know you were afraid of are waiting... With stories by AJ Humphreys, Andrew Adams, Angel Ramon, David K. Slater, Derek Thomas, Dylan Wells, Jay Bower, Joseph Murnane, Jules Terry, Jyl Glenn, Lisa Breanne, Mari Pittelman, Matthew Lutton, Mel Kitching, Savannah R. Fischer, Stephanie Huddle, and Zaq Cass.
Authors
AJ Humphreys is an emerging author of thrillers, horrors, and mysteries. The four-part Season of The Monster saga has served as his debut within the publishing world. Not one to fear going against the grain, Humphreys ditched the corporate world in 2021 for the food service industry, permitting him more time to focus on the haunting tales his mind conjures. When AJ isn't writing, it’s a safe bet he’s outdoors and his best pal, Kobe The Husky, is somewhere nearby. * * * AJ loves to connect with readers and writers, so make sure to check out all of his social media platforms!
Jyl Glenn, the Curator of Chaos, is a writer, editor, formatter, anthologist, poet, and a medical-legal writer and consultant. Her lifelong love affair with horror began at a very early age when she was left unattended on the weekend Poltergeist debuted on HBO. And then she figured out she could read any horror book she liked as long as she hung out at the public library, even if the librarian deemed it not to be age appropriate. Jyl was born and raised in New York and now lives in Tulsa with her dog. She loves creepy art, dark poetry, and pink dinosaurs. When she isn’t dabbling in the macabre—she’s most likely asleep. To connect with Jyl on social media, you can find her on Facebook or on Instagram as @_delightfully_unhinged_
