Macabre Press is a registered imprint of The Publishing Consortium, LLC.
As per the imprint name, we publish dark fiction in many forms. We are open to cross-genre stories, if they are well-crafted and contain dark elements.
- Horror
- Psychological Thrillers
- Erotica
- Must contain dark elements, and the erotica portions must serve a purpose other than to tittilate.
- No torturing of kids, no kiddie porn.
- No purple prose.
- No rape scenes. If it is needed, have it happen off camera sans details, and have a purpose (such as a woman whose history includes getting raped in college becomes a psycho killer or the world’s foremost medical specialist for assault victims.)
- No beastiality, although lycanthropes are possible if done properly. “Done properly” means we accept it for publication.
- Urban Fantasy
- Steampunk
- Twisty Fairy Tales
- Science Fiction
- Bizarre/Bizarro
- Atmospheric or Pulp
