More Than a Monster has been UNLEASHED!
Grendel Press is pleased to present our third anthology, More Than a Monster: an expedition into the uncharted realms of the human experience. It's a reminder that definitions are malleable, and that the line between light and darkness, virtue and vice, can blur in ways that both mesmerize and unsettle.
Let these 16 spellbinding stories take you on a journey that blurs the line between human and monster. This anthology has been carefully curated to weave a tapestry of emotions that reflect the very essence of what it means to be alive.
But do you know what it means to be More Than a Monster?
You can keep track of anthology updates on our Anthology News page!

Glitch $0.99
Sometimes death isn’t the end- It’s just the beginning of a nightmare.
Benny thought he had found peace in the light, only to be tossed from the heavens like a raindrop in a violent storm. Returned to his body to a life that has become a living hell.
He struggles to make sense of the chaos around him, Benny realizes something is seriously wrong.
Perhaps he may not be the only one who has been glitched. With every passing moment the stakes get higher, and the pull of the abyss grows stronger. Benny fights cosmic forces intent on dragging evil toward his light. Is God against him? Can Benny ever find the salvation he so desperately craves? Or will he be seduced by the darkness. Glitch is a terrifying journey into the unknown, what happens when the return from death goes horrifically wrong.

Unknowing, I Sink (Novella) $2.99
Fans of Aickman and Ligotti are sure to enjoy this strange and unsettling novella from Timothy G. Huguenin. Sink into what award-winning author Nick Roberts (The Exorcist’s House) calls “a gelatinous pit of abject horror”—and see if you can pull yourself out.
Julian finds a summer job cleaning a mansion belonging to Mr V, an eccentric recluse obsessed with arcane knowledge. The man’s grotesque, swollen appearance, caused by an unknown condition that keeps him bedridden, initially disturbs Julian. And those creepy terra cotta statues lurking in the shadows don’t help to ease his nerves. But the rich old man wants to pay him more than he ever imagined…
While Julian struggles to understand his new employer’s discursive monologues, a dreadful ache grows inside his chest. Where has this feeling come from? How is it that a statue’s blank stare can cloud his mind? And what bizarre and horrifying secrets will he discover when Mr V’s esoteric philosophies become manifest?
