Worms Crawl In

In Worms Crawl In, a psychological horror series from Afterlight Comics launched in 2023, a young woman returns to her isolated hometown only to find it haunted by a literal infestation of buried secrets—and the worms that carry them. Over its four-issue run, writer and artist team up to weave a claustrophobic, body-horror-tinged tale that explores trauma, memory, and the things we try to keep underground. It matters as a compact, atmospheric debut from a newer publisher, showcasing how indie comics can deliver a complete, unsettling story in a tight, self-contained arc.
