Frisson 1

Frisson is an unsettling and evocative poetry anthology that explores the delicate threshold between beauty and terror. Curated by The Ravens Quoth Press, this collection unites a global roster of poets whose verses unravel the quiet dread that lurks in our dreams, reflections, and fears.

Each piece in this volume offers a moment of eerie revelation, where the mundane twists into the macabre and the personal becomes universal through horror’s haunting lens. The poems delve into grief, monstrosity, surreal transformation, and fractured psyches, often blurring the line between what is seen and what is merely felt. With styles ranging from minimalist verse to gothic narrative, Frisson keeps readers suspended in the tension between fascination and fright.

Perfect for fans of speculative poetry, psychological horror, and the beautifully grotesque, this anthology is a literary experience designed to unsettle and captivate. Whether read by candlelight or in the stark clarity of day, Frisson delivers chills that linger long after the final page.
