Obscuria

The debut novel of Allan Grim. An atmospheric and unsettling story of a queer man wrestling with religion and sexuality, as a gory nightmare unfolds around him in a foggy Spanish Colonial cityscape. Dark, disturbing, and poetic, this horror novel explores guilt, repression, and identity through a lens of supernatural, cult horror, and southern gothic. Perfect for readers who crave literary horror that is as emotionality raw as it is unforgivingly brutal.

A bloody fever dream of murder, faith, sexuality, and identity set within the fog of an ancient city on the eve of 2012.

Leo Johnson tries to overcome his inner demons.

St. Augustine, Florida is flooded with an eerie wave of ghostly mist.

Residents are fearing the end of the world.

And a mysterious priest has come to town while bodies pile in the shadows…
