The House of Untold Stories: 50 Unexpected Tales

By Peter Chiykowski

An orphanage for wayward stories. A labyrinth of secrets. A home on the border of reality… Open each door to find a world of magic and menace waiting for you, if you dare.

In The House of Untold Stories, every page is a door, and every door leads to a new tale of heartbreak, triumph, horror, or imagination. Wander into an enchanted mansion of pocket universes and miniature tales, where each door leads to a micro-fiction story. With tales about anger thieves, a deadly pizza delivery service, haunted music boxes, and more, each room will take you on an unexpected journey.
