Everyone knows the big names of summer horror and their stories. But what about the maintenance man who doesn’t like his rooftop encroached upon? Terror at summer concerts? Tentacles...lots of tentacles.

Rules for Summer fun:

Wade into the ocean, lake or river with care this season...you don’t know what’s lurking beneath.
Don’t get too ensnared by your noise-canceling headphones--you don’t know who may sneak up on you.
Mind the jellyfish.
Never, and I mean NEVER, put all your trust in your phone’s GPS.
Question your neighbor's culinary treats, especially if they've just lost a loved one.

Get more tips on what not to do within the pages of Summer Terrors. Stories in 100 word format from authors all over the world from Black Ink Fiction.

What do you do when Death comes calling for you? Do you run and hide? Maybe you try to bargain with him? Perhaps you’re ready and you leap into his arms willingly.

And who is Death? What does he like—how does he like his tea, does he really like using a scythe, is Death even gendered?

Death can take many forms, reap many souls. Death is unforgiving; yet can be gentle, almost kind. Death is the Ferryman; the driver of a cart with bones rattling against the road; Death is many things, but most importantly, Death is inevitable.

Find out answers to these questions and more, as authors from all over the world pursue Death in this collection of 100-word stories from Black Ink Fiction. When the Reaperman knocks, what will you do?

Somewhere in the foggy moors of England, during the coldest winter of 1955, a young nurse finds
himself facing the madness lurking beneath the wards of Hamer House Hospital. He soon realizes
it’s not just the poor souls that are locked away from the gaze of the visitors above that are suffering
with mental illness.

The Second World War has taken its toll of our young men and women during the campaign,
some cracking under the constant bombardment of the falling bombs and black-outs, some unable
to resist the evil thoughts that envelope them as they descend into the horrors of a tortured mind.

Unable to deal with their urges, society has locked them away, drugging them from the need
to harm others, the want to inflict their sick twisted fantasies on any other innocent victims.

But who watches these monsters? Who has to feed them? Who has to bathe them and calm
them when their ghosts come knocking on their cell doors at night?

That fine job belongs to the warden.

Arthur has spent a lifetime under Hamer House Hospital, walking the ward, mopping its floor
and ruling the corridor with ruthless, loving authority.

But now he needs help. Who will come to his aid when the monsters are off their leashes?

So when Jimmy witnesses a fellow house burglar stealing a family’s photographs, he can’t help himself but get involved. The only problem is the police are already hunting the gang, and what’s more – there’s something strangely unnatural about them.

After confiding her theory to his best friends, he finds one of them dead after police raid his home, while the other heads out with Jordan on the lam. Not knowing what to believe, he turns to a stranger with a criminal past and a compelling reason to follow her: she knows about his wife, about the journal, and the truth about the water.

They lie. We die. But the revolution is coming.

When she discovered what those dreams truly meant it would turn her overly simple, intentionally ordinary life, completely upside down. The only person she could trust would turn out to be a total stranger and that was exactly why. The only thing Dawn knew for sure was that nothing was what it seemed, and that she needed to run.
