Cassandra Khaw's Nothing But Blackened Teeth is a gorgeously creepy haunted house tale, steeped in Japanese folklore and full of devastating twists.
A Heian-era mansion stands abandoned, its foundations resting on the bones of a bride and its walls packed with the remains of the girls sacrificed to keep her company.
It’s the perfect wedding venue for a group of thrill-seeking friends.
But a night of food, drinks, and games quickly spirals into a nightmare. For lurking in the shadows is the ghost bride with a black smile and a hungry heart.
And she gets lonely down there in the dirt.
I wrote about a really gorgeous bit of imagery and how to helps to build up the horror:

Excellent novella by Cassandra Khaw. Definitely going to keep an eye out for more of her works. Very horrific and amazingly detailed. Thanks to Barnes & Noble for recommending this!
Almost hyper-illustrative language. A short and haunting tale.
