Gather around the campfire with 20 spooky, spine-tingling tales that blend folklore, urban legend, and our darkest fears.

The great outdoors has never been so terrifying! Featuring iconic landscapes like the Grand Canyon and Redwood National Park, this book will haunt your dreams long after the last ember of the campfire has faded. Here are just a few of the super-scary stories inside:

  • A strange museum that won’t stay open after dark.
  • Sinister plants with a taste for human flesh.
  • Monsters hidden in the snow—friend or foe?
  • Mysterious lights in the sky leave messages in a cornfield.
  • A winged creature warns of impending doom.


Anastasia Garcia is a Mexican-American writer of horror and speculative fiction. Anastasia’s short fiction appears in online publications, podcasts, and in print anthologies. Anastasia writes the FRIGHTS TO TELL AT NIGHT SERIES, two collections of short horror fiction for young readers. Originally from Texas, Anastasia is influenced by local myths and legends. She now lives in New York City.
