Welcome to Anoka, Minnesota, a small city just outside of the Twin Cities dubbed "The Halloween Capital of the World" since 1937. Here before you lie several tales involving bone collectors, pagan witches, werewolves, skeletal bison, and cloned children. It is up to you to decipher between fact and fiction as the author has woven historical facts into his narratives. With his debut horror collection, Cheyenne & Arapaho author Shane Hawk explores themes of family, grief, loneliness, and identity through the lens of indigenous life.MY GRANDMA'S BLURB:"Please find another hobby. This is too horrible for words. How can you imagine someone enjoying this?"

"Very cool ideas here, not all the stories landed with me, loved Imitate the most. <br/><br/>SPOILER <br/>Instantly got sucked into the atmosphere of Transfigured and I know this will be an unpopular opinion here but I liked the story for what it was and it kinda lost its luster for me in the story notes. I got it w/o it being said from title and wanted more of the story of why the character felt that way & what did she/they do to elicit a hex ?"

"Short stories have always been my favorite form of horror. “Imitate” was probably my favorite and as far as flash fiction goes, “Soilborne” was absolutely flawless. This was a perfect example of a short story collection done right. I also really appreciated Hawk’s notes at the end that provided some insight on what inspired each story. Loved it."
