Can You Hear It? The Cryptic Creeper Stirs Once More...

Something sinister is clawing its way back from the shadows. Tales from the Cryptic Closet 4 rises from the grave on Kickstarter Saturday, February 15th—ready to drag you into the darkness.

This 48-page horror anthology oozes with chilling tales from both new and returning creators. Making her spine-tingling debut, Lilian Bonner teams up with Tales 2 writer Jon Parrish to summon a ghost story that will haunt your every thought. Matthew Hansel joins forces with Ben Miller for a twisted dive into a 1920s cult—where secrets fester and horror thrives. Eric Wolfgang and Isaac Popovich weave nightmares in their own blood-curdling stories.

Returning to the darkness are series veterans Nathan Erdel, Julio A. Guerra, Othell Flowers, Moses Gibson, Vinny Malave, Bill Halliar, and Lisa Jones—each bringing fresh horrors from beyond the closet door.

But the terror doesn’t end there. Horror icon Brett Wagner (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003)—the sledgehammer-wielding Leatherface—ushers readers into this latest descent with a bone-crushing introduction.

Dare to open the closet. Something is waiting for you inside.
