They Move Below

Horror lives in the shadows.

It exists under the earth's surface in ancient caves. Below the vast sea's undulating waves. Under dense forest cover. Within a storm's thick, rolling clouds. And downstairs in our homes, when we hear the knife drawer rattle in the night. Even our minds and bodies harbour the alien under the skin, the childhood nightmares in our subconscious.

Darkness hides things, no matter how much we strain our eyes. And sometimes those things are looking back at us.

In this collection of fifteen scary stories to tell in the dark, Karl Drinkwater sews flesh onto the bones of our worst fears, full of creeping menace that seeps from urban legends and folk horror.

¿Note: this work is 100% human-created, crafted with love by the author. No generative AI has been used in the writing or editing.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

“You’ve got creature horror, cosmic horror, horror based in folklore and fairy tales, vampires, serial killers…really, there’s something for everyone. This is a really strong collection.”

—Sci-fi & Scary

“Mr. Drinkwater looks into the Shadows; and discovers the Shadows are looking back at us. Read in the daylight, or read with a friend; but don’t read alone.”

—The Haunted Reading Room

“The writing is excellent. Each tale is unique, some horrific, and all leave the reader’s imagination to run wild.”

—Banshee Irish Horror Blog

“It’s nice to see Drinkwater playing around with form here. For me, the best was Web. It’s a tough tale emotionally to read, but brilliantly done.”

—Altered Instinct

“Contains some of the creepiest tales I’ve read in a long time. Overall an absolutely excellent collection I would definitely recommend to lovers of horror.”

—Life of a Nerdish Mum

“Drinkwater has the knack of creating a tense and terrifying atmosphere that draws in the readers and creeps them out almost from the get go.”

—So Many Books, So Little Time

“Chills guaranteed. They Move Below is a great collection of dark tales. Mr Drinkwater has a delightfully warped imagination. Now if you will excuse me it is late and I need to go and turn on all the lights...”

—Grab This Book

“I find great horror stories tend to be more about the things you don’t know than the things you do. Drinkwater has expertly ended several of the stories with great handfuls of doubt, leaving you guessing and drawing your own conclusions. A collection of very readable stories which give a comprehensive view of the genre.”

—damppebbles

“What impressed me so much, however, is the quality of Drinkwater’s prose. He writes with considerable sophistication and an almost urbane style that is so pleasurable to read. I also enjoyed the variety of the stories, with the different voices and perspectives. A vibrant, interesting and frequently unsettling collection that deserves considerable success.”

—Linda’s Book Bag
