Never Whistle at Night: An Indigenous Dark Fiction Anthology

Edited by Shane Hawk and Theodore C. Van Alst Jr., this anthology gathers short horror and dark fiction by Indigenous writers from across North America. The title comes from a belief that whistling at night can call something unwelcome, and the stories range from ghost tales and monster stories to cosmic and psychological horror, with traditions and histories of Native communities shaping each one. Contributors include writers such as Stephen Graham Jones, Cherie Dimaline and Mona Susan Power, among many others.

Horror readers who want fresh frights beyond the usual haunted house, and anyone curious about Indigenous storytelling, will find plenty here. It works well in short sittings.

Escapist; an easy read.

Best for readers like The Curious Generalist. Which reader are you?
