The Pine Deep short stories and novellas expand on Jonathan Maberry’s award-winning horror trilogy. Published between 2015 and 2016, these five stories return to the fictional town of Pine Deep, Pennsylvania and explore corners of the setting that the novels did not fully cover.

Darkness on the Edge of Town, Long Way Home, The Trouble, Mister Pockets, and Whistlin’ Past the Graveyard each approach the Pine Deep world from a different angle. Some fill in backstory, while others follow minor characters through their own encounters with the town’s supernatural elements.

These short works were published years after the trilogy concluded, giving Maberry a chance to revisit his debut setting with the experience of a more established career. For fans of the original three novels, these stories add depth to a world they already know.
