In a world where every keystroke is watched, every choice shaped by unseen algorithms, and every memory vulnerable to corruption, horror no longer lurks in the shadows—it lives in the code. Tales from the Algorithm is a gripping anthology of near-future and speculative horror stories that tap into our deepest digital fears. From a centuries-old vampire who hunts in modern chatrooms to AI assistants that rewrite reality, from haunted subway rides to virtual oceans that bleed into real life, this collection explores what happens when the tools we've built to serve us begin to reshape us instead. You'll meet: A social media star slowly losing her autonomy to a persuasive app. A journalist whose AI ghostwrites more than just words. A commuter trapped on a train that doesn't want to stop. A family at the mercy of a smart home that "fixes" its occupants. A researcher pulled into a forum that defies time itself. And many more—each trapped in their own algorithmic nightmare. Whether it's AI, augmented reality, VR, or the internet itself, each story digs beneath the surface of technology to reveal the strange, sinister forces evolving just out of sight. Perfect for fans of Black Mirror , CreepyPasta , and digital-age horror , this collection asks: What if the future isn't just watching us—but rewriting us? Dare to read Tales from the Algorithm . You may never trust your devices—or your memories—again.
