Indie Horror publisher, with an eye for quality, and more active than a pack of ravenous werewolves. Now you have a reason to fear the dark.

I was thrilled to receive my copy of this amazing anthology in the mail! It is wonderful. I especially like the font and the pictures. And the cover!! It is amazing. I have shared a picture of it on my socials and someone complimented the cover. It's an attractive book and I'm excited to add it to my collection. Keep up the great work!

Welcome to Dark Holme
Where stories breathe… and shadows never rest.
Beyond the Threshold
Dark Holme isn’t just a site—it’s a summoning. A space carved from shadow and story, where nightmares take root, microfiction breathes, and the beautifully unhinged turn fear into art.
This is an indie horror publishing destination for those who never fit the mold—and never wanted to. It’s not about cheap scares. It’s about transformation—the kind that lingers long after the last page.
At the heart of this descent stands Kerry Holmes: a conjurer of dread, armed with degrees in Creative Writing and Publishing, and devoted to giving horror’s misfits a home.
Born in rebellion, Dark Holme isn’t just a press. It’s a haunted house with open doors, where dark fantasy, eerie fiction, and outsider voices are seen, heard, and remembered.
Submit your horror stories. Read the unsettling. Join the descent.
You’ve entered. Now see what follows you out.
