House of Gamut, the nonprofit dedicated to helping artists tell their stories in the realm of dark speculative fiction, announces a deal and pre-sale availability of the unique anthology: 120 Murders: Dark Fiction Inspired by the Alternative Era edited by Nick Mamatas.

BOSTON, April 22, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- House of Gamut announces a new anthology edited by the award-winning editor and author Nick Mamatas. The non-profit publishing house, along with Mamatas's vision and creativity, found a unique way to capture this musical era and share the legacy of songs mixed with dark mystery and suspense.

The expansive anthology developed by Mamatas allows writers to focus on the music of their generations while constructing a mystery, crime, noir, gothic, or horror story inspired by the song of their choice. 120 Murders will run about 80,000 words and be released in 2025.

"Generation X is the cynical generation of dark romantics.120 Murders is an anthology of power chord crimes and keyboard horrors—the best noir, dark fantasy, and transgressive fiction from writers inspired by grunge, goth, ska, synthpop, and every eclectic sound of the alternative era."

"Generation X is the cynical generation of dark romantics," says Nick Mamatas. "We love dark fiction. Our idea was to create something unique while paying tribute to the songs, bands, and lyrics of this generation. 120 Murders is an anthology of power chord crimes and keyboard horrors—the best noir, dark fantasy, and transgressive fiction from writers inspired by grunge, goth, ska, synthpop, and every eclectic sound of the alternative era."

Contracted contributors include Josh Malerman, a novelist, short story writer, film producer, and one of two singer/songwriters for the rock band The High Strung. He is best known for writing his post-apocalyptic novel Bird Box. Cara Hoffman, author of the feminist classic So Much Pretty, which sparked a national dialogue on violence and retribution, brings us a haunting story of loss entitled "How Soon is Now?" Underground sensation Jeff Chon, author of Hashtag Good Guy with a Gun, channels the vibe of classic black and white music videos and jangle pop with "Equations for a Falling Body." Guardian First Book Award and IMPAC Dublin Literary Award nominee Elena Mauli Shapiro delivers us to Ground Zero in her hard-rock inflected "Never Forget." Many more authors, from indie darlings to best-sellers, will be announced!
