All Her Beautiful Deaths by A. Rushby
Summary: A gothic tale in two timelines in which the lives of two women intersect through a series of mysterious, eerily beautiful photographs of the dead. London, 1865. Minnie has been sent to Culpepper House to work as a maid. She’s been told that the Culpepper twins are odd, and odd they are. Edmund and Edith seem to do as they please, with Edmund running a laboratory from the house and Edith running about with glass plates in order to create photographs. When Minnie spies what Edith is photographing—a young woman and swan, both dead—she is horrified. But with nowhere else to go, there is nothing to do but remain and try to unlock the mystery of Culpepper House’s secrets before she becomes the victim of such a photograph. London, present day. When Sydney-based artist Hadley is involved in an art world scandal revolving around an album of exquisite Victorian death photographs, she’s met with a flurry of media attention and the offer to create an installation centering on a heartbreaking image of a young woman and a swan. Then comes a shocking offer from the enigmatic Kit Culpepper of the Culpepper Trust… an eye-watering sum of money, with the condition that Hadley sell him the album and never speak of its contents again. As Hadley digs deeper, she begins to suspect Kit Culpepper is guarding a deathly secret…and she’s not entirely sure how far he’ll go to keep it.

Banquet for the Damned by Adam Nevill
Summary: Few believed Professor Coldwell could communicate with spirits. But in Scotland’s oldest university town something has passed from darkness into light. Now, the young are being haunted by night terrors and those who are visited disappear. This is certainly not a place for outsiders, especially at night. So, what chance do a rootless musician and burned-out explorer have of surviving their entanglement with an ageless supernatural evil and the ruthless cult that worships it? A chilling occult thriller from award-winning author Adam Nevill, Banquet for the Damned is both a homage to the great age of British ghost stories and a pacey modern tale of Devil worship and witchcraft.

Blood Is Dripping onto the Courtyard by Elvira Navarro, trans. Christina Macsweeney
Summary: From the National Book Award longlisted author of Rabbit Island comes a new collection of stories that straddle the line between the horrific and the fantastic. A young couple’s washing machine fills with blood; a man saves animals who have been hit along the highway, turning his home in a peculiar zoo; the security guard of a half-built housing development suffers from hallucinations; a young woman struggles to understand the cruel neglect of the Parisian suburbs. This is a world of precarious jobs, towns in the middle of nowhere, abandoned buildings, and cities that are nothing more than blocks of concrete whose contours Elvira Navarro distorts to the point of giving reality the consistency of a nightmare. In an almost imperceptible way, the disturbing infiltrates the lives of these men and women until they find themselves alone at the end of a dark road, afraid to turn around.

Gold grows up knowing only a few things about herself: something lets her see ghosts and read her neighbors’ secrets, and her mother seems to hate her. But when she strikes out on her own, she stumbles into a job at The Wheel, a literally-underground lesbian bar where a coven gathers every Thursday and each entrance requires a painful sacrifice. It feels like the first place she’s belonged. But the bar, its patrons, and its history are more complicated, and more dangerous, than Gold ever realized. As she entangles herself in her new community, she learns more about herself than she wanted to know–and attracts an ancient goddess’s deadly attention.

Wither: A Modern Gothic by Dan Warner
Summary: Mick has been off-grid for more than a year, surviving in the Missouri woods. He’s on the wrong side of paranoid, haunted by the catastrophe that sent him running, and he needs antibiotics for a rotting wound. If he can return to civilization, maybe he can reclaim what he’s lost: a relationship with an environmental activist named Alison, a dream of escaping his small-time youth for Chicago, and the cutting-edge data-analytics tool that just might be his meal ticket. But when Mick arrives in Bloom, Missouri, he’s confronted by a ghost town: there are cars in the driveways and cans in the cupboards, but the people are gone, and it looks like they left in a hurry. Mick should probably leave, too, but he’s looking for Alison, looking for redemption, and he’s looking for Regression, the algorithmic black box that promised: No one is invisible… Told in alternating timelines, Wither is an unnerving, thought-provoking horror for our times.
