I’m reading one horror story a day this May—and I want you to join me. Horror Mayhem 2026 is here, and this year’s theme is A World of Horror: short stories, novellas, and bite-sized nightmares you can finish in a single day.

This is a low-barrier, high-reward reading challenge. No massive novels. No falling behind. Just one story a day—31 chances to discover new authors, new countries, and new kinds of fear.

I’ll be sharing my full TBR, daily progress, and thoughts throughout the month, and I’ll be tagging my co-hosts so you can follow along with all of us. If you’ve been looking for a way to get back into reading—or just want a reason to explore horror beyond the usual suspects—this is it.
