Z Poc: The Lodge
A zombie survival tale set in a deceptive Arkansas mountain lodge.
The narrative unfolds in a remote lodge where winners of a vacation contest discover their stay is a test of human restraint. A fictional zombie virus spreads among the guests, turning the idyllic setting into a trap. The characters must rely on their wits to avoid infection and find a way out. This work aligns with the tradition of American horror fiction that emphasizes physical threat and immediate peril. It does not offer historical analysis or scientific explanation for the outbreak. Instead, it focuses on the psychological and physical breakdown of individuals under pressure. The tone remains consistent with the genre’s emphasis on visceral fear and the loss of control.
This 2021 independent publication sits within the contemporary American horror tradition. It echoes the style of Richard Laymon, focusing on isolated settings and sudden violence. The work reflects a period where self-published authors often prioritized fast-paced, genre-specific storytelling over literary experimentation.
