A love spell gone so right, it must be wrong... A fairy tale hero pursued relentlessly by the undead... An infant son stolen beneath the sea by a cold-hearted witch... An old English theater haunted by a peculiarly thespian ghost... These are some of the mysterious, otherworldly vistas you will encounter in Dark and Dangerous Things-a collection of eight stories of speculative fiction from four up-and-coming writers that will have you wondering if maybe, just maybe, those monsters hiding beneath your bed when you were a child were real after all.
