A follow-up to the New York Times best-selling Deep Dark Fears: a second volume of comics based on people's quirky, spooky, hilarious, and terrifying fears.

Illustrator, animator, teacher, and comic artist Fran Krause has touched a collective nerve with his wildly popular web comic series and subsequent book Deep Dark Fears. Here he brings readers more of the creepy, funny, and idiosyncratic fears they love illustrated in comic form--such as the fear that your pets will tell other animals all your embarrassing secrets, or that someone uses your house while you're not home--as well as two longer comic short-stories about ghosts.
Selected for the American Library Association's 2018 Great Graphic Novels for Teens

"Krause’s gripping second collection of nightmare confessions (submitted to his popular webcomic by readers) is an excellent choice for readers who want to be spooked but also provoked into thought. . . Subtle, haunting vignettes for older teens and adults."
-- Booklist

". . .a book through which you owe yourself a trip."
-- iHorror.com

"It understands the spectrum of fears and manages to capture an exceptionally authentic human experience. . . I cannot recommend it enough."
