What have you been haunted by? What echoes are in your midst? Spirits aren’t just apparitions that linger in empty hallways and portraits. They are the songs from your childhood you still know all the words to, the figures from your dreams that speak in gibberish, and moments of déjà vu that feel like coming home. They are fantasies, prophetic visions, fragments of the self, and the mirrors of voices in your heart. Memories of the past that linger on in reverberations and reincarnations.
Whether it’s kodama in Princess Mononoke or Spike’s quest for a soul in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, send us the works that feel like the moment between dreaming and waking.
We are accepting prose (approximately 4,000 words or less), and poetry (up to four poems, to a maximum of six pages). Please submit via Submittable. We pay $30 per printed page of prose and $40 per printed page of poetry.
