Something is always listening for the moment you’re too tired to notice.
THE INCUBUS is a chilling supernatural horror anthology featuring twenty standalone horror stories of demons, nightmares, cursed bargains, haunted places, ancient evil, psychological terror, and the dark things that wait for us when we sleep.
A nurse has learned exactly which corners of the hospital not to look at for too long. A bride discovers her wedding vows have been renewing a two-century-old demonic bargain. A father finds a lucky casino chip that pays out in memories instead of money. A teenager realizes his recurring nightmare has been holding something shut since he was seven years old.
Across twenty completely standalone supernatural horror tales, THE INCUBUS reinvents one of the oldest demons in human folklore: the entity that waits until you’re exhausted, grieving, dreaming, or desperate enough to stop guarding the door.
But this is no ordinary collection of incubus stories.
The demon never wears the same face twice. It never follows the same rules twice.
It becomes a dream doctor. A dollmaker’s bargain. An ice hotel’s frozen hunger. A lighthouse’s drowned voice. A family’s black wedding. An elevator offering to rewrite the worst night of your life.
And in every story, the supernatural entity has already discovered the precise shape of what you would do anything to get back.
Blending supernatural horror, psychological horror, demonic horror, dark folklore, nightmares, paranormal encounters, haunted locations, occult bargains, ancient demons, and disturbing twists, THE INCUBUS is a horror short story collection for readers who want unsettling ideas rather than predictable monsters.
There are no shared characters. No shared mythology. No sequel hooks.
Every nightmare begins and ends on its own.
That means you can open THE INCUBUS to any story, on any night, and discover a complete journey into the supernatural — cinematic, unpredictable, atmospheric, and designed to leave you staring into the stillness of your bedroom for half a second longer than you intended.
If you love scary short stories, supernatural horror books, psychological horror, demon stories, dark folklore, paranormal fiction, occult horror, nightmare horror, creepy stories, terrifying twists, and standalone horror anthologies, there is another door waiting for you here.
Twenty stories. Twenty demons. Twenty doors.
One very old hunger, wearing twenty different faces.
