Winner, This Is Horror Award

Finalist for the Shirley Jackson Award

Finalist for the Bram Stoker Award

After the People Lights Have Gone Off is a collection of 15 stories featuring zombies, a hardboiled detective, a giant space-traveling lobster, an enigmatic alien, Rod Serling, and numerous apocalypses. The collection opens with 'Thirteen', a tale about a small-town urban legend that might be leading kids to their doom. 'Welcome to the Reptile House' reveals the secrets that hide in our flesh. In 'The Black Sleeve of Destiny', a hoodie leads to unexpectedly dark adventures. The title story, After the People Lights Have Gone Off, is more than a typical haunted-house tale.

The power of this collection lies in the author's ability to find horror in everyday objects and situations, inviting readers to use their imaginations to fill in the blanks.

With an introduction by Joe R. Lansdale.
