If you’ve read LaRocca before you know by now that he never pulls punches, and this is no exception. While I wouldn’t consider this as fantastically visceral and nightmarish as his other creations, everything the darkness eats focuses instead on the emotional darkness that creeps on us when we’ve gone through trauma. Please read the trigger warnings!
