SINISTER CENTURY

Step into the shadows of the past with Sinister Century, a Disturb Ink Books Anthology series. Each collection in the series delves into the dark underbelly of a specific decade, bringing to life the horrors that lurk beneath the surface of some of our most nostalgic decades. From the eerie silence of early cinema to the ever vigilant (always listening) AI of today, these chilling tales explore how technology and culture intertwine to create nightmares tailor made for each generation.

Escape - Explore the shadowy world of cinema in the 1920s


Listen - Succumb to the eerie whispers of radio during the 1940s


Watch - Uncover the haunting secrets of television in the 1960s


Capture - Experience the chilling grip of VCRs & camcorders in the 1980s


Host - Navigate the dangerous territories of the internet in the 2000s


Lurk - Confront the sometimes malevolent forces of social media & AI devices in the 2020s

*Each collection in the series can be read as a standalone, though the experience may be slightly enhanced by reading them in order.
