The Scary Book of Valentine's Day Lore

This book pulls back the pink and red curtain on Valentine's Day to reveal the holiday's shadowy history of tragic love, dark romance, and true crimes of passion. It explores classic myths where affection curdles into obsession and declarations of love end in murder, proving that the most terrifying stories are often the ones wrapped in a heart-shaped box. This collection of lore is for readers who suspect that the most intense human emotions are rarely simple and often have a dark side.

What makes this volume so compelling is its commitment to unearthing the genuinely unsettling tales that lurk beneath the commercialized surface of the holiday. It’s a perfect read for fans of dark history, macabre folklore, and anyone who prefers their romance with a heavy dose of reality and a chilling consequence. By the final page, you'll never look at a box of chocolates or a bouquet of roses in quite the same way again.
