Horror Stories Double Feature
It’s a double feature! Make Sure You’re Around After You’ve Gone, which is a collection of ghost stories, and Through the Night Like a Snake, which is a collection of horror stories specifically from Latin America.

Jane & The Red Parts
It gives life to this rather harrowing story of random and brutal violence, bringing humanity to what often just becomes statistics of cruelty.
Unusual Fragments
I’m including Unusual Fragments as a spooky selection because all of these stories share some aspect of the unusual and arguably supernatural — or at least just plain eerily weird.
