The Family by Lor Gislason

THE EVENT has created something horrible. Kristy is awoken in the middle of the night by a knocking at the door and an indescribable smell. THE FAMILY doesn’t know what they’re dealing with!

This is from INSIDE OUT, an over-the-top tribute to the goopy, grimy, and gross horror of the 1980s. After a mysterious infection spreads through the world, people and animals start melting into horrific monsters. This wild debut novella follows everyday people dealing with the new chaotic reality, from school children to scummy landlords to mad scientists. Featuring illustrations from horror artists such as Enuch Duncan, Matt Pierce, and SJ Miller, with cover art by Eduardo Valdés-Hevia. Barf bag not included.

“Lor Gislason’s Inside Out turns body horror, well, inside out. In the wake of a contagion that melts and mutates flesh, Gislason stitches together flash fiction vignettes from over a dozen points of view, scooping out the plague’s messy physical, emotional, and even spiritual ramifications on the survivors.  Fast-paced and insightful, while never less than gleefully and deliriously gruesome, Inside Out is a squirming treat for horror fans.“ -Gordon B. White, author of Rookfield
