More Modern Horror Awaits in HELLO DARKNESS #5
When the lights go out, the darkness breathes its own haunting story. BOOM! Studios invites you to face the fear with a chilling preview of HELLO DARKNESS #5. It marks another terrifying chapter in their acclaimed anthology series, famous for delivering modern Horror, Fantasy, and Mystery at its finest. True to form, they’re back with darker stories spun by a murderer’s row of world-class creators.
From primal fears to political horrors, this series explores it all. The creative line-up reads like a horror buff’s dream: R.L. Stine, Garth Ennis, Becky Cloonan, and many more. It’s a blend that echoes Creepy, Eerie, and the contemporary chills of Black Mirror.
Frightful Tales and Reluctant Survivors
This fresh face of horror continues with tales of terror by industry stalwarts. In "Shutter," by Sarah Gailey and Liana Kangas, a photographer captures more than just images, complicating relationships. Then, a pair of neighbor girls stumble upon "The Butterfly Field" crafted by Jeremy Bastian and Ziyan Qiu, while the search for a long-lost sibling unravels in Sarah Andersen’s “The Search.”
In "The War, Part 5," Garth Ennis and Becky Cloonan spin a tale of refuge with David and Nikki. They soon learn that mere isolation isn’t the key to survival. Meanwhile, a new chapter unfolds in Erica Slaughter’s investigation during the latest Something is Killing the Children adventure. As always, Robert Hack adds his staple of hilarious horror to the mix.
