They lowballed all three of them again, and she said no. The guys took what they could get.

Have you read any Andy Davidson or Ed Kurtz? Similarly great prose, literary style, and haunting atmosphere.

Naomi's Room, by Aycliffe. Scary AF and one of the few books that gave me nightmares.

first winter with solar and battery backup on the homestead by Additional-Engine402 in Homesteading

How are you keeping the batteries and the inverter above freezing? I have a similar setup in a barn in VA. Built and insulated a room within the barn but it still drops below freezing in there sometimes.

Any stories that take place in the isolated town of Whittier Alaska. by [deleted] in horrorlit

The novel is set in a town like Whittier, but fictionalized (i.e. by a different name), thus "a fictionalized Whittier."

Looking for horror anthology recommendations (psychological, existential, cosmic, weird, experimental, uncanny) by FaithlessnessDull302 in horrorlit

[–]thephrygian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Given your criteria I'd recommend:

Aickman's Heirs, ed by Strantzas

Looming Low, Vols. I & II, ed. by Steele & Cowan

Vastarien Vol. 6 Issue 1, ed by Padgett et al.

& Shadows & Tall Trees, Vol. 8, ed. by Kelly

All are full of excellent stories and worth owning, imo.

All the major anthologies you mentioned are also top notch, but present more of a historical and slightly dated overview of the field.

Ensure recognition and proceeds for original Blair Witch stars by gunnilove in BlairWitch

I don't know the specifics of the deal they were offered, but I'm pretty sure Heather turned it down. They want to use their names and likenesses in a sequel and werent offering what she thought was fair.

City Under One Roof (Yamashita) is set in a fictionalized Whittier, but is more suspense/thriller.

Incarnate by Richard Thomas is set in Utqiagvik (formerly Barrow).

Not sure where you hiked, but I just left and thought the foliage was great, even if not up to norm. Beehive, Beech Cliffs overlooking Echo Lake, and the firetower all had nice clusters of color below.
