Brand new and perfect for horror and dark fantasy readers, this bundle brings together atmospheric, unsettling reinterpretations of beloved classic stories in a single collectible set.
About the Book(s)
Alice opens in the crumbling Old City, where a woman with no memory of her past wakes inside a grim asylum, haunted by fragments of a tea party, long ears, and blood. Its sequel, Red Queen, follows Alice and her companion Hatcher beyond the city's ashen fields as they hunt for his lost daughter, colliding with the cruel White Queen and the Black King along the way. Lost Boy strips away the whimsy of Neverland to reveal Peter Pan as a chilling, manipulative figure through the eyes of the boy who loved him and lived to tell a darker truth. The Mermaid reimagines a Scandinavian folk tale as a haunting story of a fisherman who pulls a mysterious woman from the sea, exploring desire and danger beneath the waves. Finally, The Girl in Red transplants Little Red Riding Hood into a bleak, disease-ravaged future, following a lone woman in a red jacket fighting to survive quarantine camps and the terrors of the deep woods. Across all five books, Henry's blend of horror, folklore, and sharp prose transforms familiar childhood tales into gripping adult nightmares, rewarding fans of dark retellings and unflinching twists.
