On a misty cemetery world, three strangers are drawn together through mysterious circumstances. Each of them has a tale to tell of a narrow escape from death. Amid the toll of funerary bells and the creep and click of mortuary-servitors, the truth is confessed. But whose story can be trusted? Whose recollection is warped, even unto themselves? For these are strange stories of the uncanny, the irrational and the spine-chillingly frightening, where horrors abound and the dark depths of the human psyche is unearthed.

Explore the darker, mysteryious side of Warhammer Fiction with this great anthology of stories from Warhammer Horror.
An arcane evil has awoken in these worlds defiled by endless war. Perhaps it was born from the madness of violence. Or else it has always existed, hiding among restless shadows with eyes half-closed. But now, it slithers and creeps into the wreckage of people’s lives, those who have already survived the unthinkable. It covets the lost, the lonely and the hopeless, pushing them down their fateful paths — a reclusive historian, searching for a ghostly ship; the crew of a ruined craft who must brave a slow, inevitable death; an old woman seeking redemption in a hostile wasteland. For these are the stories of journey taken, choices made and the power of the human spirit when dark forces come hunting.
This collection features tales of the grim and uncanny by Graham McNeill, Jake Ozga, Lora Gray and more.
