    Bodies stack when Sasquatch is on crack! 
    When a popular social media sensation and renowned bigfoot hunter goes missing, her friends pickup on an important clue as to her disappearance when one of them discovers a camera with digital proof of the existence of Bigfoot in the Appalachian Mountains where she and her cameraman went missing a few days earlier. 
    Now the hunt is on to find the illusive cryptid and hopefully bring their friend back. As the band of trackers hit the mountain on this ambitious quest, one of the team harbors a dark secret. Little do the others know that one of them is addicted to a deadly synthetically altered version of crack, known on the street as Agent Orange, because it both looks like orange candy and turns its users’ eyes a hellish orange color. 
    What makes the drug so nefarious, however is that it causes a high number of its users to become enraged; prone to fits of uncontrollable violence. These violent episodes are enhanced when consumed by animals, where they have no civilized willpower against becoming raging killers themselves, attacking anything – and anyone – in their path! 
    Consequently, this expedition to the mountains will become an expedition to hell itself once the team realizes that not only are they about to find the ever-so-sought-after and (believed to be) beloved Bigfoot, but now are dealing with a raging, psychopathic Sasquatch, who has gotten ahold of the dangerous drug.

    “Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus” is the novel that forever changed the course of gothic literature and modern storytelling. Written by Mary Shelley at just eighteen, it was born from a question that still haunts readers today: 
     What happens when human ambition breaks the limits of creation? 
    At the center of the story stands Victor Frankenstein, a young scientist driven by obsession, and the Creature he brings to life—an outcast struggling with loneliness, rejection, identity, and the desperate need to belong. This is not simply a tale of horror. It is a profound exploration of what it means to be human. 
    This edition is perfect for listeners who want more than a classic:those who love psychological depth,those who seek a timeless story in a clear and accessible form,and those drawn to narratives that feel modern, intense, and emotionally rich. 
    Shelley creates a world of ice, storms, deserted roads, and lightning-lit laboratories, but her true stage is the conflict between: 
     creator vs. creation, 
     responsibility vs. ambition, 
     the desire to be loved vs. the fear of being seen for what we are. 
    If you are looking for a novel that blends tension, atmosphere, philosophy, and human emotion, Frankenstein remains an unmatched masterpiece—a story that continues to resonate, provoke, and captivate every new generation.
