Description



Book Synopsis



Those who do not learn from history are doomed to (rep)eat it.

A mother and daughter negotiate the Oregon Trail with grisly results; an elementary teacher watches the carnage of The Challenger explosion spill over into her own classroom. A possible prospector traveling west is drawn to an isolated inn where no one walks away hungry; a 1950s housewife shares the gruesome repertoire of behavior expected of a proper lady. Prohibition and women's suffrage, the Civil War and the Vietnam War, the JFK assassination conspiracy and the Y2K hysteria: the annals of American history are reimagined with a side order of cannibalism by twenty of the biggest names writing horror fiction today.

Forget what you read in the textbooks.

Everything you were taught about the Land of Liberty is about to be history.


With brand new fiction from Brian Asman, Daniel Braum, V. Castro, Douglas Ford, Jeffrey Ford, Holly Rae Garcia, Owl Goingback, C.V. Hunt, Gwendolyn Kiste, E.V. Knight, Clay McLeod Chapman, Ronald Malfi, Elizabeth Massie, Jeremy Megargee, Bridgett Nelson, Candace Nola, Clint Smith, Jon Steffens, L. Stephenson, and Jeff Strand; Foreword by Wrath James White



Review Quotes




"Gory and relentless, American Cannibal tears across centuries with an insatiable appetite. This blood-slick gathering drags history through a toothy gauntlet, picking the bones in every way from careful social dissections to moments of absolute carnage."- Hailey Piper, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Queen of Teeth and Benny Rose the Cannibal King "American Cannibal takes a big, bloody bite out of the genre. Gruesomely intimate, it is a feast for horror fans."-Gretchen Felker-Martin, author of Manhunt
"An excellent anthology that all 'gorror' fans will savor long after they put it down."-Horror Tree
