Come on in, the horrors are fine

You were told it’s just a shadow. You were told it’s an optical illusion, a creaky floorboard, a trick of your imagination. But you always knew better. Welcome, friend, we knew it too.

EJ Trask writes dark fiction, horror, and magical stories about that other world hidden inside our own. That world you have always felt in the dark, in the hidden places, maybe even inside yourself.

At Age of Aquarius you will get original short stories a couple times a month. All the stories are written by EJ in the old fashioned way, never with AI. You can support human art by subscribing to this substack, buying EJ’s books, or sending coffee money.

  • Paid subscribers get exclusive monthly posts, lots of snail mail surprises like zines, haunted holiday cards, and even signed books, and access to the Age of Aquarius archive (with more than 60 stories unavailable anywhere else).

  • Founding subscribers get to star in a custom horror story. Founding memberships aren’t always open, so grab ‘em when you can! You can sample some subscriber stories here, here, and here.

  • Free subscribers get new short stories and audio versions the day they are released. You will have new things to read or listen to every month.

If you love a good old fashioned website, EJ has one of those too, at ejtrask.com.
