City Horror Stories: New Orleans

By: Mankiewicz, Anna

New Orleans is not a city you visit. It is a city you survive. Behind the neon lights of Bourbon Street and the jazz-filled air lies a different reality. One where the humidity doesn't just cling to your skin-it hunts you. In this collection of ten visceral tales, the boundary between the city and the body dissolves, and the price of admission is always paid in flesh. In City Horror Stories: New Orleans, the architecture hides teeth and the swamp never forgets: A failed trumpeter discovers a score that demands a physical transformation to be played.A historian learns that the ancient oaks of a plantation do more than just provide shade.A bachelor party takes a dark turn when a voodoo doll decides to swap places with its owner.A Mardi Gras mask fuses to a dancer's face, forcing a performance that goes beyond exhaustion and into agony.A tugboat captain feeds the Mississippi River, until the river decides it wants a different course.From the claustrophobic attics of the Garden District to the mist-shrouded bayous where silence screams, these stories explore the darkest corners of the Southern Gothic tradition.

Prepare yourself. The humidity is rising, the levees are breaking, and the city is hungry.
