Book Overview
"Perfect for horror fans who can't get enough of folklore and fairy-tale retellings that veer in unexpected directions." -Booklist, STARRED Review 2023 Bram Stoker Awards(R) Nominee
2023 Silver Falchion Awards Winner "Fans of folklore retellings will find plenty to enjoy." -Publishers Weekly A collection of new and exclusive short stories inspired by the Baba Yaga. Featuring Gwendolyn Kiste, Stephanie M. Wytovich, Mercedes M. Yardley, Monique Snyman, Donna Lynch, Lisa Quigley, and R. J. Joseph, with a foreword by Christina Henry. Deep in the dark forest, in a cottage that spins on birds' legs behind a fence topped with human skulls, lives the Baba Yaga. A guardian of the water of life, she lives with her sisters and takes to the skies in a giant mortar and pestle, creating tempests as she goes. Those who come across the Baba Yaga may find help, or hinderance, or horror. She is wild, she is woman, she is witch--and these are her tales.
Edited by Lindy Ryan, this collection brings together some of today's leading voices of women-in-horror as they pay tribute to the Baba Yaga, and go Into the Forest. "Lyrical and brutal; each story unfolds hidden truths about the all-devouring witch. The stories in Into the Forest collect the guts and bones of some of the world's oldest witch tales and refashion them into something new, beautiful, and gruesome." -Foreword Reviews
