The Straitjacket In the Woods Kitty R Kane

When Abi and Jay lose a game at Halloween, their friends have a challenge for them. Simply enter the deep forest where a legendary crazy woman named Pendulous Sedge is said to live, obtain a trophy and bring it back. Nothing however can prepare them for what they find after spotting a blood covered straitjacket hanging from a tree... Writing about her Short Sharp Shocks! Kitty recently said: "My story is a Richard Laymon inspired tale. It has been kicking around my mind for a long time, I wanted to explore family units with a difference, and spin a Laymonesque style twist within it. My main protagonist is a woman called Pendulous Sedge. It's the name of a plant that I borrowed. She is my experiment with what can happen to misunderstood people when evil people get hold and abuse them. She is also a shining example of humanity and love in the face of severe horror."(with a cover by Adrian Baldwin)
