    "Monsters aren't real." 
     
     
     
    That's what sixteen-year-old Lucy Brannigan has always believed, until, broke and desperate, she and her father move to an isolated farmhouse in the small Scottish town of Helsbridge. It's their last chance, and they have to make it work. 
     
     
     
    For Lucy, life appears to be over. With no friends, and surrounded by miles of thick woodland, there's nothing to do. But why did the previous occupants leave their belongings behind? And why is their new home surrounded by dozens of scarecrows? And worst of all . . . what is the cause of the horrifying screams that wake her in the night? 
     
     
     
    This summer, Lucy will be forced to learn the dark secret of Helsbridge. And as the bodies pile up, and the blood flows in rivers, she makes a shocking discovery that will change the course of her life forever. 
     
     
     
    Monsters are real . . . and no amount of flesh can sate their diabolical hunger.

    On a chilling night in 1994, a small town was consumed by chaos as horror movie clichés became terrifyingly real. Slashers stalked dark alleys, ancient demons awakened, and alien hunters prowled the shadows. The victims we've come to expect—like the Slutty Girl, the Stoner, the Jock, and the Nerd—were targeted, cornered, and left for dead.  
    But what if, just once, the story didn't end the way we thought it would? 
    **Archetypes of Horror: The Night The Tropes Survived** twists the familiar rules of the genre, offering ten flash fiction stories where classic horror movie victims fight back, survive, and find unexpected futures. From the cheerleader who outsmarts an alien killer to the goth kid who narrowly escapes a cursed fate, these stories breathe new life into old tropes, delivering sharp, suspenseful narratives that challenge our expectations. Each tale is packed with gripping suspense, moments of dark humor, and an underlying sense of dread that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. 
    For readers who loved **Creepshow**, **Goosebumps**, and **Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark**, **Archetypes of Horror** will be a thrilling and nostalgic ride, tapping into the universal fear of what happens when the familiar becomes deadly. Are you ready to discover what happens when the victims fight back… and when they wake up?
