Travel to a world where steam power is widely used, and weave a tale where Steampunk Horror rules the night.

Tell a tale of imagination, fascination and horror that will keep the reader enthralled by what was or might have been in an age dominated by clockworks of brass, pneumatic tubes, airships with ether screws, and leather worn out of necessity not vanity.

Stories of Steampunk Horror only please, and don’t forget to make your shine a bit gritty!
