Description

From  Evil Dead to  The Ring , there’s just something trapped in dead media that keeps drawing us a combination of horror and nostalgia that’s irresistible. In  The Black Tapes , Libby Cudmore and Nick Mamatas bring you haunting tales of lost media, real and imagined, from the best writers working today. It’s a promise and a threat―if it’s in print, on film, on tape, or saved digitally, it's forever.Or so one might think.Everyone from message board mavens and freelance journalists to private detectives and middle-class family guys has revived the search for lost media―forgotten flash games, snatches of song, never-seen TV pilots, and even rare slot machines. The resulting tales and the often-dead media formats they’re trapped on will not be fading into the past; they’ll be seared on your corneas―and stored in your brain―forever.
