For this anthology of Hundred Word Horror stories, we challenged a band of talented writers from around the globe to write a horror story in just one hundred words. The only stipulation? It must be inspired by a song.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here you\u2019ll find cursed rock stars, demonic records, and deadly one-hit wonders. Wherever possible, we\u2019ve listed the song inspiration along with the story, so you can sing along to your heart\u2019s content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just be warned: you\u2019ll never listen to these songs the same way again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CONTRIBUTING AUTHORS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Alexis DuBon, Alice J.
