Editor's Note
Challenges stereotypes…
The Black girls in this YA horror anthology are the heroines we’ve all been waiting for. Featuring stories by acclaimed authors like Zakiya Dahlia Harris (“The Other Black Girl”), Justina Ireland (“Dread Nation”), and Vincent Tirado (“Burn Down, Rise Up”), this collection challenges stereotypes and brings #BlackGirlMagic to the forefront. Tananarive Due (“The Reformatory”) pens the foreword, providing historical and cultural context about how Black characters have traditionally been treated in the horror genre.
