Publisher's Synopsis
Where the Wind Screams is seven shots of dread straight to the heart.
J.C. Moore writes about the kind of horror that doesn't wear a mask or carry a chainsaw. It comes quieter than that. A bad decision. A buried secret. A place you should've left long ago. These stories dig into broken towns and busted families, the ghosts we make ourselves, and the awful truth that sometimes the scariest thing is just looking in the mirror. The wind's always saying something-you just have to listen.
Includes:
Old Man Slash - He was a name in the papers once. A myth. A killer. Now he's old, brittle, and back at the campground. But some urges don't die-they just wait their turn.
The Ashes We Carry - A father and daughter walk through the husk of America with a buried past, and nothing left to trade but memory.
The Reckoning - A former sheriff rides with two kids through a dead land, haunted by what he let happen-and what still waits for him in the flames.
The Good Boy - A lost dog tries to find his way home. But people change. And not every cage has a key.
Stay Down - After years of abuse, Carly finally takes control. But the lake doesn't forget. And neither does the plumbing.
You Scream Nice - A college student gets in the car with her sometimes-boyfriend. What follows is a brutal night of tunnels, blood, and something feral in the woods. This isn't about escape-it's about surviving what's already in motion.
Below - A group of survivors seal themselves in a mine to wait out the end of the world. But something else is waiting too-something older than the fever.
For readers who like their horror sharp, personal, and rooted in the kind of everyday dread you don't see coming until it's too late.
