The Indigo Room (The Shivers #2) by Stephen Graham Jones
Unrated

Don’t lose your head over office politics…The horrors of the modern workplace meet actual horror in a fiendishly entertaining short story from New York Times bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones.

When the lights go out and the slideshow begins, middle manager Jennifer has a disturbing vision: a headless colleague right across the boardroom table. Is it a trick of the light, or a vision of the future? She tries to brush it off and salvage the afternoon—but when her ex unexpectedly drops off her son at the office after school, suddenly her whole world takes an alarming turn.

Stephen Graham Jones’s The Indigo Room is part of The Shivers, a collection of haunting stories that reveal the otherworldly terrors all around us. Once you know, there’s no going back. Read or listen to each story in one unsettling sitting.

Also known as Jackknife Book 2.

Stephen Graham Jones

Stephen Graham Jones is a writer whose work stretches the boundaries of horror, crime, and speculative fiction. A member of the Blackfeet Nation, he infuses his stories with the rich tapestry of his heritage, blending cultural insights with chilling narratives. His books have earned widespread recognition, earning spots on bestseller lists and garnering multiple prestigious awards, including the Bram Stoker Award, the Shirley Jackson Award, and the Ray Bradbury Prize.

Growing up in West Texas, Jones' love for storytelling was born in the landscape of small towns and vast, open spaces. His early experiences shaped much of the atmosphere that permeates his writing—where tension simmers beneath the surface, and the supernatural feels just a breath away from reality. Now living in Boulder, Colorado, he combines his deep understanding of place with his passion for the dark, twisted corners of the human experience.

Jones’ works are known for their ability to make the reader feel as if they are on the edge of a precipice, with characters who grapple with identity, survival, and the haunting persistence of the past. The Only Good Indians and My Heart Is a Chainsaw are just two examples of his talent for blending horror with profound emotional depth, making his stories not just terrifying but thought-provoking. His writing is steeped in folklore and contemporary fear, creating worlds where the strange and the familiar collide in unsettling ways.

When he’s not writing, Stephen serves as the Ineva Reilly Baldwin Professor of English at the University of Colorado, where he continues to inspire the next generation of storytellers. Whether on the page or in the classroom, his dedication to exploring the complexities of identity and storytelling is evident. With each book, Stephen Graham Jones continues to redefine what it means to write horror in the modern age, creating tales that linger long after the last page is turned.
