Support indie publishing
We couldn't be here without you.
The Dread Machine is a nonprofit operation run by passionate volunteers and funded by donations. We don’t have sponsors, and we don’t sell ads. Our community makes our work here possible. If you enjoy our stories, please consider joining us or sending us a donation. Every penny the company receives pays a writer and expands our library of content.
