FINAL MEETING OF THE TRUTH SOCIETY
by Matthew Acheson

Published by Raygun Revival Magazine

My entire body was drenched, and the storm continued to beat us with sheets of rain and wind. I could feel the bodies of my friends shaking against my own. It was only a matter of time before one of us broke down and fled, and then all would be chaos. The gun shook in my hand as I struggled desperately to keep it pointed down the path.

FULL STORY


My name is Matthew Acheson and I am a writer of weird tales.

I love stories that make my heart race, chill my blood and coax the hairs on the back of my neck to stand at attention. I prefer strange plots with hairpin turns and protagonists whose trials leave them broken, damned, deranged. These stories remind us we are alive.

Thank you for visiting Cryptic House, where you will find all of my published fiction, and occasionally a selection of my unpublished work as well.
