Back for Blood: Never Whistle at Night Part II
edited by Shane Hawk, Theodore C. Van Alst Jr.
The bestselling Indigenous dark fiction anthology returns with a new selection of even more daring and sinister stories.
As any savvy horror fan knows: the monster never truly dies. The team that brought you the bestselling dark fiction anthology Never Whistle at Night has risen, hungry, from the grave to summon more dark delicacies for your delectation. In these twenty-one brand-new, groundbreaking, gruesome stories—authored by both established and newly unearthed Indigenous talent and illustrated by renowned Cheyenne and Arapaho painter Brent Learned—the contributors are fully embracing horror: both supernatural horrors and the everyday horror of living under colonialist rule.
YOU ARE ON NATIVE LAND CAMO CAP
Designed by Urban Native Era
The ‘You Are On Native Land’ Camouflage Cap continues one of Urban Native Era’s most recognized statements. Designed as an everyday staple, the piece carries a message intended to spark awareness and conversation across communities. Available in white or orange embroidery.

Eighth Generation: Above and Below Wool Blanket
Created by Lehuauakea
As an artist and traditional kapa-maker, Lehuauakea (Native Hawaiian) has created their Above and Below Wool Blanket to reflect the ancestral patterns found on kapa (barkcloth)—a non-woven textile from the beaten bark of trees that is either left plain or decorated with natural dyes and pigments.
Lehuauakea has woven even more meaning into their blanket by including the traditional colors found in the ochre pigments that are often used to decorate finished kapa.

Urban Native Era: Urban Native Era (UNE) started in November 2012 in San Jose, CA by Joey Montoya (Lipan Apache) who wanted to increase the visibility of Indigenous Peoples through social media. He began taking photos and videos of the ‘Idle No More’ movement and posted them online. By May 2013, Urban Native Era released its first set of shirts intended to draw in a broader audience. Today, UNE crafts minimal yet powerful designs to create timeless garments. Made for everyone.
Eighth Generation: Eighth Generation is a Seattle-based art and lifestyle brand owned by the Snoqualmie Tribe. It was founded in 2008 by artist, activist, and educator Louie Gong (Nooksack), and was purchased by the Snoqualmie Tribe in 2019—making them the first tribe to own a lifestyle brand.
As the first Native-owned company to ever produce Native-designed wool blankets, Eighth Generation is a proud participant in the global economy.
