We Were Just Kids is a chilling collection of three modern horror novellas from acclaimed author Michael Turner. Each story takes place in and around schools-where youthful ambition meets unrelenting terror.

In The Experiment, eleven college students volunteer to wear "sustainable" clothing for 72 hours-only to discover they've become unwilling participants in a government trial designed to strip away empathy and unleash pure aggression.

Teacher's Pet follows a high school drama club pushed to their limits by a cult-like instructor who insists greatness requires sacrifice. As disappearances mount, so does the realization that their commitment to the craft might be fatal.

In Legends Never Die, a group of students investigates a decades-old urban legend in a sleepy college town, unaware that the legend fights back-and it's been watching them from the beginning.

Dark, grounded, and hauntingly plausible, Legends Never Die turns the familiar halls of learning into corridors of fear.
