What if pigs really could fly... with bloody snouts and a taste for human flesh? Or chickens developed a murderous hive-mind? And then there is Old McDonald and his brood of demented children. This anthology approaches horror from the scenic landscape of farms. What is really in that barn? What else gets plowed? Or planted? Barnyard Horror will deliver a harvest of poetry, flash fiction, horror art and short stories not soon forgotten, even if the reader wants to!
The idyllic facade of rural life shatters when the creatures of the farm turn monstrous. This anthology explores the dark underbelly of agriculture, where pigs develop a taste for human flesh, chickens form murderous hive-minds, and a family of demented children presides over a landscape of terror. The collection probes the unsettling question of what truly lurks within the barn and what unspeakable acts occur under the guise of farming.
This anthology is presented as a collection designed to deliver a disturbing and memorable experience, focusing on the macabre potential of farm settings. The blend of poetry, flash fiction, short stories, and art aims to create a varied yet cohesive exploration of rural horror. The premise suggests a work that leans into visceral and unsettling imagery, promising a harvest of frights that will linger with the reader. The overall intent appears to be a departure from conventional horror tropes, utilizing the familiar landscape of the farm to cultivate new and terrifying scenarios.
