Scream to the Shadows
20 shadowy tales from Asia's Stephen King
Unconfined to a single theme, this new collection of twenty short stories by Halim offers five distinct worlds.
The paranormal mysteries from 'the occult world', with its dark settings reveal supernatural existences in the characteristic Halim style.
'Fragmented Minds' open doors to the tales of the horrors of some twisted human minds driven by madness. Without the theme of supernatural, these instances of the human rationality falling apart evoke fear of a different nature.
The third set of horrors is a reflection of our vulnerability, with its tales of how destructive technology can be at times.
'Graveyard Voices' makes you align your thoughts with the author who wonders who all are watching is when we walk by a graveyard and what thrilling rides they could take us on.
The final set unearths stories that are influenced by the richness of Malay myths and legends, dark beliefs that may go back hundreds if not thousands of years ago into primeval past.
Some are fast-paced, rollercoaster like even. Some are more leisurely. Some may be scary like a haunted house ride while others less so, but in all the five different themes, you are guaranteed to Scream to the Shadows.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
