Published by Grindhouse Press, Samantha Kolesnik presents this compilation of stories based on vacations gone wrong entitled Worst Laid Plans: An Anthology Of Vacation Horror. Sadie Hartmann sets the tone with an enjoyable foreword that would make the most stable vacationer a paranoid wreck.
Anthologies are always interesting to see how each individual writer approaches and executes a running theme. Each of these creators have their own take on nightmare tourism, lurking darkness and monsters that become real. From Kenzie Jennings brilliant portrayal of a normal family on the surface, then revealing a distorted and disturbing truth with a twist. To the way Patrick Lacy lures the reader gradually with unsettling nuances of unearthly sexual voyeurism. These authors have cleverly contributed something authentic and compelling towards their own features.
