In October, I published a new short story. Crockern’s Curse concerns a young couple investigating a childhood mystery on Dartmoor are menaced by supernatural forces linked to local folklore. A spine-freezing tale of supernatural horror, this proved very popular with readers of the Fictions publication on Medium (where it was published). It’s in five parts, but there are links to every subsequent part at the end of each instalment.

Check out the first part on Medium here. Alternatively, if you are a subscriber to Dillon Empire on Substack, check out all five parts there, starting with part one here (again, there are links at the end of each segment to the next part). I’ll explain more about what I’m up to on Substack soon, but the short verison is you can get all my film reviews there for free (they disappear behind a paywall after four weeks), or else take up the paid option of $5 per month and in addition to unlimited access to the film review archive, enjoy all my other articles syndicated from Medium, including top tens, classic film analysis, and of course, short stories.

Enjoy!
