About the Anthology

The Second City is second to none when it comes to terror.

From H.H. Holmes—America’s first serial killer—to the Jane Byrne Interchange at rush hour, an ill wind blows through the Windy City. This anthology gathers twenty authors from across Chicago to deliver twenty bone-chilling tales that explore the city’s darker side.

Featuring stories by Jotham Austin II, Bendi Barrett, Tina Jenkins Bell, Priya Chand, TJ Cimfel, R.L. Gehringer, Christopher Hawkins, Sandra Jackson-Opoku, Aleco Julius, Nick Medina, Jen Mierisch, Sahar Mustafah, Cynthia Pelayo, K.A. Roy, K. Saab, C.J. Subko, Theodore C. Van Alst Jr., and Lauren Emily Whalen.

📚 10% of book sales will benefit Brave Space Alliance, a South Side Chicago center providing affirming programs and services for trans and LGBQ+ people.

🕯 Free and open to the public.

Join us for frightful stories, community, and conversation—if you dare.
