There’s nothing quite like a good scary story. And for travelers in search of weird destinations, a creepy tale that spotlights your favorite offbeat destination only sweetens the terror.
Enter the State of Horror anthology series to assuage your winter blues. These ingenious books from Charon Coin Press aren’t just your usual supernatural yarns; these narratives are for every intrepid tourist who wants to learn more about the folklore of a state as well as the little hidden locales you might not find in Zagat’s guide.
Though every state will gets its due, the series kicked off with Illinois and New Jersey. Turns out the Land of Lincoln and the Garden State are even weirder than you thought (and I mean that as the most sincere form of flattery).
This month, Charon Coin Press released State of Horror: North Carolina, which features everything from roadside ghosts to bingo-playing chickens. Next on tap? The states of Louisiana, Tennessee and California. From Mardi Gras to Redwoods and Nashville to Hollywood, the end of the road is nowhere in sight for this macabre literary fun. Plus, the series in available in print, digital, and even newly released audio format, which means whether you’re on the road or curled up in roadside accommodations, the State of Horror anthology has got you covered.
Happy haunting, and happy reading!
