Publisher's Synopsis
Fourteen of some of the best writers in the horror genre invite you into their den of nightmarish stories. If you don't watch out, you'll never be able to leave! Enter the world of the Monstrous Feminine, where fourteen authors weave a dangerous web of tales for your personal delight and fright. You'll meet an archaeologist who opens her mouth at the worst possible moment and you'll discover the protector of all life who decides the fate of humans. Follow four girls into their town at the height of the witching hour and bump into a peculiar woman who rehabilitates misogynists. Beware of a ravenous grandma and pray for the handyman who trespasses into a creepy house. Turn the pages and you'll unearth the reason a woman seeks comfort in a strange one-night stand, and you'll stumble upon a doctor and the disastrous epidemic ravaging her city. And family-you can't pick them or easily kill them, but never mess with a woman when the red moon rises. What happens when certain women are mistreated? Or when experimental drugs are used on women without their consent? When something wild comes knocking at your door and the ground is smothered with a blanket of snow, what will you do? Don't go floating on the muddy river James to uncover the answers or you just might find you get carried far away!
