klwardFascinating word, "macabre". It makes its first known appearance in in a fragment of the 14th century French poem by one Jean Le Fevre: "Je fis de Macabre la danse." I make that out to be "I take my part in the Macabre dance." The word supposedly derives from the Maccabees, martyrs to whom Christian tradition ascribes the invention of the prayer of intercession for the dead in purgatory. It exists to describe the interaction of the living with the dead.
It is also the name of an upcoming anthology from Brimstone Press, who advised me today that they have accepted my story, "Erina Hearn and the Gods of Death".
Yippee!

Are they local or international?
