The Haunted Traveler Vol. 1 Issue 1

Welcome to the first issue of The Haunted Traveler; a roaming anthology seeking to collect the strange and the wild stories that we all carry. Those words hidden in the deep dark that linger around. Weasel Press is proud to have released this first collection of material and is excited to do more anthologies in the future. The Haunted Traveler is a non-profit, Horror and Science Fiction anthology that accepts a wide variety of art media such as photography, short fiction, creative non-fiction, digital artwork and more. Our anthology publishes twice a year. To find out more information about our submission process, please review our submission guidelines. Our first issue was released on March 28, 2014 and we couldn’t be more excited to feature the explosive talent that has been submitted to us. Our idea is to have an anthology roaming around parts of the world with a collection of frightening and strange stories; a mysterious anthology with a collection of ghosts.

MAN: Why are you talking to me like this? You’re awfully<br />

mysterious.<br />

WOMAN: I just thought I could help another human<br />

being. You look like you could use some pleasurable relief<br />

from the onerousness of it all and I can certainly offer you<br />

that. You have quite a miraculous voyage ahead of you.<br />

MAN: I’m not someone who likes to travel, to tell you the<br />

truth. You know, I’ve never quite heard anyone speak like<br />

you.<br />

WOMAN: I always speak like this. Oh, you’ll get used to<br />

it. Earlier I had the most lovely conversation with a man<br />

in Italian…and, let me see, yesterday I was able to use my<br />

French and Japanese and Mandarin. Quite a day it was. A<br />

little later I’ll be able to use my Hindi and Spanish and Russian…<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are so many lovely languages.<br />

MAN: I have some errands to run. It was really nice meeting<br />

you. (Pointing up at the traffic lights) I’m just waiting for the<br />

lights to change.<br />

WOMAN: What if they don’t change?<br />

MAN: It will definitely change. That’s the life of a pedestrian.<br />

Stopping at street corners, waiting for the lights to<br />

change, crossing the street.<br />

WOMAN: I trust you’re being metaphoric.<br />

MAN: Not really. Pretty literal.<br />

WOMAN: I never deal in the literal. It’s so pedestrian.
