CONTENT WARNING!!!
OUR IDENTITY IS THE WARNING. READ BEFORE BUYING

WATG Press publishes unease.

Our stories are brief, but they do not look away. They explore the quiet, the wrong, the buried, and the things that should perhaps remain unspoken. You will find unsettling atmospheres and disturbing themes, sometimes approached indirectly, sometimes without mercy.

Our works may include, but are not limited to:

  • Death and dying (including child death)

  • Grief, loss, and mourning

  • Psychological distress, obsession, and mental deterioration

  • Violence (suggested or explicit)

  • Abuse, neglect, and exploitation

  • Body horror and physical transformation

  • Isolation, confinement, and erasure

  • Existential dread and loss of identity

  • Cruelty, moral decay, and human wrongdoing

These stories are meant to unsettle, to linger, and to disturb.

Discomfort is not an accident. It is the intent.

Reader discretion is advised.
If you are looking for comfort, reassurance, or safety, this may not be the place.

This is what we do.
Enter aware.
