For this month's Indigenous Collective pick, we wanted to dive into something that blends both eerie atmosphere and rich cultural storytelling—something that feels perfect for spooky season. Enter Man Made Monsters by Andrea L. Rogers, a chilling collection of stories that spans generations and blends folklore with the very real terrors of history.
The book follows a Cherokee family through centuries of haunting encounters, from shape-shifting creatures to the horrors of colonization. What makes Man Made Monsters so compelling is how Rogers blends the supernatural with historical realities, reminding us that the scariest monsters aren’t always the ones from legends. Each story is laced with tension, both from the paranormal and the human-made horrors faced by Indigenous people.
Love the color and the weight. The name is so “fitting” and looking forward to knitting a pair of fingerless gloves. Once again, a hit!
