Teenage Girls Can Be Demons is a wildly inventive and downright terrifying collection of 13 stories covering everything from grisly body horror and ancient eldritch beings to horrifying urban legends, all brought to life by the Bram Stoker award-winning author of Queen of Teeth.

Perfect for fans of Clive Barker, Mariana Enriquez, and Eric LaRocca.

13 coming-of-rage stories the way only Bram Stoker Award-winning author Hailey Piper can tell them—wildly inventive, brilliantly imaginative, and completely and utterly enthralling.

A vicious group of college upperclassmen prey on the freshman girls in "Why We Keep Exploding"; across the world, something is mutating adolescents into bizarre creatures in "The Turning"; a girl on a night out realises a bizarre cop is hunting her in "The Long Flesh of the Law"; and in the acclaimed novella "Benny Rose, the Cannibal King," a Halloween prank goes horribly wrong when a murderous ghost steps out of an urban legend and into the real world.

These stories take our most difficult years of transformation and twist them into new and terrifying shapes, where the monsters are real and you'll do whatever it takes to get away, or get even.
