Synopsis "Hideous Progeny: Classic Horror Goes Punk"
Eleven stories and one chilling poem, inspired by classic tales of terror and suspense. Can Tesla's invention animate the creature in the Wild West in time to save the girl? What destroyed the cyber-greenhouses-was it the meteor from out of space? How will the radiation affect her-and will love survive the transformation? Hideous Progeny: Classic Horror Goes Punk is the fifth charity anthology from Writerpunk Press, with steampunk, cyberpunk, carniepunk, clockpunk, atompunk, and biopunk stories inspired by tales such as Dracula, Carmilla, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, and Frankenstein (twice!). Other inspirations include Gaston LeRoux, Ambrose Bierce, Oscar Wilde, Franz Kafka, Lord Tennyson, and H. P. Lovecraft. Profits are to be donated to PAWS Lynnwood, an animal shelter and wildlife rescue located in the Pacific Northwest. If you like to shiver as you read and want a new look at your favorites, take home Hideous Progeny: Classic Horror Goes Punk and join in as our authors view the world of horror through the lens of 'punk stories.
