Hollywood Haunts Dark Matter
DARK MATTER PRESENTS: HAUNTED REELS is the newest anthology in our 'Dark Matter Presents' series. In April 2020, the world faced imminent lock-down, so a group of filmmakers started a virtual support group. Once a week, these diverse voices would assemble to do what they do best: tell each other stories. Campfire horror tales, emotional cosmic mysteries, and anything else that either made them take their minds off what was happening to the world, or help them understand it. HAUNTED REELS is the best of those stories.
Curated by film producer, David Lawson Jr., this collection features 29 brand-new stories written by some of the biggest and most creative names in film, TV, and video games, including C. Robert Cargill (Sinister, Dr. Strange, The Black Phone), Aaron Moorhead & Justin Benson (Something in the Dirt, Moon Knight, Loki), and Janina Gavankar (The Morning Show, God of War: Ragnarök, Horizon Zero Dawn, Tales of the Jedi).
The book covers a wide range of genre fiction, from science fiction and horror, to alternate history and new weird, so there is sure to be something in here for every kind of reader and fan.
