Many Indigenous people say you should never whistle at night. The reasons differ—spirits, witches, things that answer from the dark—but the warning is always the same: once you call them, they’ll follow you home.
In this haunting anthology edited by Shane Hawk and Theodore C. Van Alst Jr., twenty-five Indigenous authors conjure spirits, curses, and ancestral terrors that refuse to stay buried. From ghosts and shape-shifters to revenge and survival, each story hums with the power of tradition and the danger of disobedience.
With an introduction by bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones, Never Whistle at Night is a bold and unflinching showcase of Indigenous horror. A national bestseller and finalist for the Locus, Bram Stoker, and Shirley Jackson Awards, it’s unforgettable storytelling that bites back.
