Warren crafts chilling micro-fiction for each tool, revealing dark histories of family curses, repeated deaths, and sinister purposes. A grandfather's measuring device that counts final breaths. A button hook that holds memories of a buried woman. Teeth set in silver, waiting for the perfect mouth. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBorn from a social media experiment where Warren wrote stories for tools she'd never seen and wasn't allowed to research, this collection exemplifies horror at its most inventive. Each pairing of image and text creates an unsettling archaeology of the everyday, proving that the most innocuous objects can harbour the deepest terrors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for horror fiction fans who understand that every antique has a story and some stories should have stayed buried.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.19 x 6 x 4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 01, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53247221858611,"sku":"9780648403678","price":36.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/KcA0t9u7j89780648403678.webp?v=1776299120","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/spirit-level-strange-tools-and-story-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
