Subcutaneous

By: Holding, R. E.

Sebastian lives a comfortable life in the small town of Black River, Missouri. He leaves behind the corporate slog, the woman he once loved, and a childhood he can barely recall. One weekend, along with girlfriend, Lacey, he joins an old friend, Matty, and Mena, the ex-girlfriend now engaged to someone new. Their ordinary conversation evolves into a revelation about the absence of a former coworker that doesn't appear accidental.

As Sebastian attempts to regain Mena's affections, disturbing events befall the circle of friends that lead to the discovery of a strange white chapel in the middle of Fort Pines Park; a sprawling forest large enough to conceal the darkest of secrets.

Each new catastrophe draws closer to home, revealing cryptic connections between the chapel and a dark force hunting random victims to create ritualistic soap.

SUBCUTANEOUS explores themes of bodily autonomy, paranoia, and the fragile nature of reality through the lens of intimate horror.
