Undead Appalachia
Description
Brood XIV Books is seeking short fiction for a new folk horror anthology tentatively titled Undead Appalachia. Once again, we would like to see authentic Appalachian settings and characters; we strongly prefer submissions from writers who live or have lived in Appalachia. These stories may feature creatures with a physical form, like zombies, vampires, ghouls, etc., or ghosts and spirits that are disembodied. These may be human-like or animal-like figures.
