It Came From The Trailer Park: Volume 2
A horror anthology focusing on supernatural threats in trailer parks by William Joseph Roberts.
William Joseph Roberts compiles a collection of horror stories set in trailer parks, drawing on traditions of rural terror and supernatural fiction. This volume features contributions from authors such as Jonathan Maberry, Arlan Andrews Sr., and Philip K. Booker, alongside a guest editorial by Larry Corriea. The narratives explore blue-collar struggles against creatures like chupacabras and zombies that emerge from derelict double-wides during events like the big game. Roberts qualifies his selection by focusing on the daily hardships faced by rednecks, contrasting their toughness with the perceived ignorance of suburban soccer moms and soy latte-sipping men. The book suits readers who enjoy backwoods madmen, hidden horrors, and explosive hijinks involving moonshine and shotguns. It does not suit those seeking polished urban settings or gentle supernatural tales. The collection organizes these disparate voices into a unified theme of rural defense against the unknown. Readers will find stories that challenge the notion that beer and buckshot are the only things making rednecks tough. The anthology presents a specific view of American horror rooted in trailer park life, offering a distinct alternative to mainstream gothic fiction.
Published in October 2022 by Three Ravens Publishing, this book sits within the tradition of American rural horror. It draws on the cultural archetype of the tough redneck and contrasts it with suburban stereotypes. The volume reflects a specific era of indie horror publishing that embraces gritty, working-class settings.
