Step carefully—beneath the ice, the dead are listening. From Lucien Vale , author of Night Terrors: The Devil’s Big Top , comes the chilling new volume in the Night Terrors Anthology Series — a haunting descent into frozen dread and supernatural suspense. Night Terrors: The Frozen Lake gathers thirteen tales of winter horror , where isolation, guilt, and the cold itself become instruments of terror. Beneath the stillness of the ice, secrets stir. The drowned return to sing. Reflections in the glass move on their own. A voice calls from below, promising warmth… but only if you come closer. Each story in The Frozen Lake delivers a sharp, cinematic shock—crafted with taut prose, relentless pacing, and an atmosphere of creeping dread that seeps into your bones. These are stories meant to be read in a single sitting, with the lights low and the wind whispering against the windows. As the lake freezes over, thirteen horrors awaken: A diver discovers something alive beneath the ice. - A lost traveler follows ghostly footprints into the fog. - A village performs a ritual to keep the frozen dead from rising. - A reflection moves on its own—and smiles back. - And a woman returns home to the lake that claimed her sister years ago… only to hear her calling from beneath the surface. Every secret sinks eventually. And the lake never forgets. For fans of Shirley Jackson , Stephen King , and Algernon Blackwood , this anthology captures the essence of gothic horror blended with modern psychological fear — a chilling meditation on what’s buried in the dark, and what waits when the ice finally cracks.
