Hayseed Press returns with Iowa Weird Vol. 2, the annual short story collection about the unusual and extraordinary and sometimes horrific tales you can find in the state of Iowa. And those that might find you.
Fifteen Iowa-based writers venture into the dark corners of the Hawkeye State, where local legends, unexplained phenomena, haunted houses, and unsettling tales lurk just beyond the familiar.
From mysterious spirit lights and ghostly figures to a bridge with an appetite for trucks, a haunted jail, and the forgotten Devil of McGregor, this short story collection explores the unusual and extraordinary hiding within Iowa's cornfields and barns.
Inside this year's edition of Iowa Weird are "true" stories, enduring myths and legends, and original tales born from the warped imaginations of Hayseed Press's contributing writers.
Stories include:
• The St. Marys Spirit Lights
• The geiste ecke of The Amana Colonies
• Dubuque's Woman in Black
• Davenport's truck-eating bridge
• The Squirrel Cage Jail of Council Bluffs
• The Devil of McGregor
• The Flood Creek Train Wreck
Whether drawn from local folklore or conjured from darker depths, these stories reveal an Iowa that is stranger-and weirder-than it appears.
You who fear, continue to fly over. You who dare, these dark fields lie waiting.
