We are currently OPEN for submissions until Feb. 7th.
What we’re looking for:
- We’re looking for previously unpublished short stories that embrace and reimagine Gothic fiction for the 21st century.
- Compelling plots with a strong literary bend.
- Eerie atmosphere is key.
- Stories with Weird Fiction and Folk Horror elements are strongly welcome.
- You can’t have Gothic without a little bit of terror & horror… that being said, we are not a horror fiction magazine.
- Stories that contain gruesome violence, gore, or explicit sexual content.
- Stories written in Victorian Era prose.
- Fantasy.
- Strong science fiction.
- True Crime.
Word count: 1,500 – 6,000 words
