Description

13 SCARY STORIES. 13 AUTHORS OF COLOR. 13 TIMES WE SURVIVED... THE FIRST KILL.

The White Guy Dies First includes thirteen scary stories by all-star contributors and this time, the white guy dies first.

Killer clowns, a hungry hedge maze, and rich kids who got bored. Friendly cannibals, impossible slashers, and the dead who don't stay dead....

A museum curator who despises "diasporic inaccuracies." A sweet girl and her diary of happy thoughts. An old house that just wants friends forever....

These stories are filled with ancient terrors and modern villains, but go ahead, go into the basement, step onto the old plantation, and open the magician's mystery box because this time, the white guy dies first.

Edited by Terry J. Benton-Walker, including stories from bestselling, award-winning, and up-and-coming contributors: Adiba Jaigirdar, Alexis Henderson, Chloe Gong, Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé, H. E. Edgmon, Kalynn Bayron, Karen Strong, Kendare Blake, Lamar Giles, Mark Oshiro, Naseem Jamnia, Tiffany D. Jackson, and Terry J. Benton-Walker.

A collection you'll be dying to talk about... if you survive it.

I'm a fan!" --Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of the Rot & Ruin Series

"Skillfully pushes the boundaries of the genre.... Not for the faint of heart." --Kirkus Reviews

"Powerful." --Publishers Weekly

"Changing the horror game one short story at a time." --Cosmopolitan

"Each reader will have a favorite tale in this solid horror short story collection." --School Library Journal

"Fans with strong stomachs will enjoy this."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"This book brings us together, explores experiences and emotions, and vents so much frustration, all while having great horror fun. I loved reading this book, and many readers out there will love it, too." --Lightspeed Magazine
