    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
