About

An index for the darker side of culture and history.

Morbid Index is an English-language editorial publication for readers interested in true crime, dark history, mysteries, folklore, paranormal claims, and horror.

Our approach

We aim for clear, useful, and humane coverage. Subjects involving violence, loss, and trauma deserve context and care—not spectacle. Reporting will distinguish what is documented from what is alleged, remembered, disputed, or part of folklore.

The publication is preparing its first reported entries and will publish only when the available sourcing and context meet that standard.
