The Uncanny Valley… “…is a macabre serenade to a small town that may or may not exist, peopled with alive and dead denizens who wander about the hills and houses with creepy fluidity. Told by individual inhabitants, the stories recount tales of disappearing dead deer, enchanted gardens, invisible killer dogs, and rattlesnakes that fall from the sky; each contribution adds to a composite portrait that skitters between eerie, ghoulish, and poignant. Miller is a master storyteller, clearly delighting in his mischievous creations.” Thirty-Three Tales. Thirty-Three Tellers. One Lost Town.

Return to Uncanny Valley …the remarkable town supposedly destroyed in 1948, where paranormal is normal and the unusual is traditional. Now it reaches out from the past again through an extraordinary bundle of journals and documents that chronicle a season of the community’s darkest hours. It is 1909, and Uncanny Valley’s tranquility is shattered by greed and distrust after the offer of a full-scale buyout by Tarkington Mining. Yet when the residents take blind Ben Driscoll’s advice, “Don’t sell,” an even greater shadow quickly descends – one that uses human weakness as a weapon – and its purpose is darker than anyone can imagine. Together, Norton Weiss, Emmett Fielding, and Roger Burlington try to counter the growing incidents of intimidation and destruction. But after an evening of unspeakably brutal murders, the whole town – both the living and the dead – has to strike back, using every strange skill and hidden secret at its disposal. With Darkness in the Valley, author Gregory Miller has crafted a spellbinding novel, bringing back familiar characters from The Uncanny Valley and introducing many new ones, all of whom are indispensable to this small borderland community balanced precariously on the edge of two worlds.

Uncanny Valley is calling… The thin places of the world are never stable, and one of them, the small town known as Uncanny Valley – burned, broken, forgotten – now teeters on the brink of utter darkness. Unleashed, that darkness would consume far more than who…and what…still survives within its enchanted borders. Yet hope remains – a flickering candle compared to the bonfire of evil that threatens it – and even as Uncanny’s destructor returns to finish what he started, the citizens of Still Creek, the town next door, suddenly remember the strangeness, the shadows, and the beauty of their long-lost neighbor. And for some of Still Creek’s population, those memories may unlock the key to Uncanny’s salvation…and their own. With this, the third volume in The Uncanny Chronicles and his first major work in a decade, author Gregory Miller returns, revealing dozens of new accounts connected to Uncanny Valley: accounts that chill the spine, warm the heart, and remind us that not everything taken from us is truly lost forever. What a blessing. What a curse.
