"A fantastic anthology. Each story is a blast. There are tons of wonderful characters, memorable horror gore, and awesome twists! Readers will quickly be hooked into the overall premise while getting acquainted with Primm, who is a spectacular narrator."

-Nico Bell, Author of Static Screams & Editor of Shiver: A Chilling Horror Anthology


Professor Douglas Primm is no fan of horror fiction.


Once a well-respected novelist, Primm is called in to teach a horror writing class at Bloodworth College in Room 301, a lecture hall rumored to be cursed. His only responsibility for the next week is to read aloud the works submitted by his students for the prompt:


A Twisted Take on "Horror Genre Tropes".


As Professor Primm reads these tales aloud, they become increasingly unhinged, as does his grip on reality, causing him to question whether he too may be succumbing to the dark hold of Room 301.


In this anthology, the authors are the students, and you, the reader, experience Primm's slow descent into madness as he inadvertently unleashes unspeakable horrors. Giant insects, summer camp stalkers, cursed VHS tapes, sentient cars, backwoods terror, killer storms, home Invaders, and more await you in Cursed Room 301.
