About The Grotesque by Sean Foy
Thirteen years ago, in a neglected home on the outskirts of town, an unspeakable past was giving way to hope and the promise of a brighter future. On October 31st, that hope ended in violence and death.
This Halloween, that past is circling back around.
An unsociable dancer auditioning for a dream ensemble. The hallucinating obsessive who yearns to become a hero. And the serial offender who begs to be forgiven. Their only chance for redemption lies in the horror of that terrible night.
For Katrina, Jared, and Michael, every dream for the future is forever chained to the traumas of their childhoods. But it all ends when they become integral parts of a deadly masquerade to absolve the guilt-ridden secrets of the past.
No more living in the shadows. It’s time to spotlight the ugly truth. In a world where the innocent are broken, beaten, and betrayed, everything is a dance. Everyone is the audience.
It’s time to make it or break it all.
