The Haunted Vagina
by Carlton Mellick III
I’m an English major but the last thing I’ll ever be is a “literary snob.” I think a lot of people will scoff and turn their nose up at a book like this, but I think there’s a great value and a lot of things to unpack when it comes to the freakishly absurd.
Steve’s girlfriend’s vagina is haunted and becomes a doorway to a new dimension. This book certainly follows what many horror stories do and that’s Othering the female. What is it about the female that scares men so much? Look at Carrie, The Exorcist, The Ring, Jennifer’s Body, what do these stories all have in common? Mellick puts a bizzaro twist on the ‘monstrous female’ narrative we see in so many horror staples and I can’t wait to dig into more of Mellick’s bizarre stories!
