Dustin Lavalley presents Brewtality: Extreme Horror Anthology, a collection nominated for the 2020 Splatterpunk Award. The volume features fifteen new stories by writers including Edward Lee, Jeff Strand, and Ryan Harding. These contributors explore the dark intersection of alcohol consumption and psychological terror.

Some tales frame drinking as courage in a bottle, while others portray it as the devil's cocktail. The stories force readers to confront the temptation of sin and the confusion that follows excessive consumption. Each narrative acts as a psychological bombardment on the mind. This collection suits fans of extreme horror and splatterpunk fiction who enjoy dark explorations of addiction and supernatural dread.
