From everyday to ethereal, the seven stories in What Goes Unseen and other tales from Afar peer into the cracks of life, asking what lurks in the liminal spaces between the known and unknown. Creating a collection of short stories for adults in the vein of Scary Stories To Tell In the Dark, with a mix of scary, thought-provoking, and fun chapters. Sean Minster captures the fear, fun, mystery, and murder of campfire tall tales mixed with the intelligence, angst, and nostalgia of his own unique perspective. Several of these short stories are literary in nature while some are his take on local lore and folk tales.The stories look at what wanders the woods, be they beasts of childish lore, otherworldly temptresses, or rebellious pirates. Minster inspects what lies under a child's bed and inside a guilty man's heart. These tales of creation and destruction call on everything from Native American mythology, to pop culture like Kipling's The Jungle Book and Johnny Cash's The Long Black Veil. What Goes Unseen unravels the fear and wonder that exist around us in the world and that emerges from the genesis of our own minds.
