Horror Stories

Chilling tales from Malaysia's master of horror.

If you're drawn to the darker side of fiction, Tunku Halim's "Horror Stories" is poised to satisfy that craving. Halim is renowned in Malaysia for his ability to weave chilling narratives with a local twist. It's the kind of book that lures you in with its rich cultural backdrop, then holds you tight with its haunting tales. As a retrospective of his work, it's perfect for a deep dive into the unsettling and the uncanny.
