Horror can take countless forms: monsters, strangers, our inner demons. In Tananarive Due’s “The Wishing Pool and Other Stories,” supernatural horror intersects with chillingly real themes of trauma, racism and family conflict. In Grady Hendrix’s “How to Sell a Haunted House,” protagonist Louise clashes with her brother while trying to sell their sinister childhood home. Moderated by NPR’s B.A. Parker.
