About

This anthology will be filled with beautiful words and terrible tales, all which revolve somehow around a cellar door. So what's behind your cellar door? This collection of fiction, poetry and artwork will showcase the power writers and artists have to change associations we so often have with certain words in the English Language. Writers will dive to depths of their imaginations to find darker, more sinister implications and meanings these words might have once we're done with them...
