Synopsis

Bitten: A Gothic Zombie Horror Novella: A Dark Survival Horror Story of Maternal Terror, Infection, Sacrifice, and the Dead Who Hunger in the Winter Silence.

A mother’s love can survive almost anything.

But can it survive the bite?

One year after the dead rose, Leah Daniels is still alive.

Once, she was a tattoo artist with black hair, inked skin, two young sons, and a life held together by exhaustion, cheap holidays, and stubborn love. Now she survives in an abandoned coastal caravan park with Noah, ten, and Michael, six, hidden away from the dead world beyond the windows.

No running water.
No electricity.
No warmth except what can be stolen from blankets, memory, and fear.

The winter seaside town around them has become a graveyard of shuttered arcades, empty caravans, rotting shops, and rain-slick streets where the Hollows wander in silence. Leah has kept her boys alive by teaching them not to cry loudly, not to speak near windows, and never to open the door unless they hear the right word.

Then one of the dead comes too close.
Leah kills it before it can reach her children.
But when she returns to the caravan and washes the blood from her hands, she sees the wound.

A bite.

Small. Ragged. Impossible.

And already part of her.

Desperate to stop the infection before it can take her, Leah makes a brutal choice that will mark her forever. But as fever rises, supplies dwindle, and the wound begins to whisper beneath the bandages, she must leave her sons locked inside the caravan and search the dead town for medicine before it is too late.

Outside, the Hollows are waiting.
Inside, two children are learning that silence is not the same as safety.

Bitten is a bleak and atmospheric Gothic zombie horror novella told in haunting first person. Blending survival horror, maternal terror, body horror, psychological dread, winter coastal decay, and grimdark emotional brutality, this novella follows one mother’s desperate fight to remain human long enough to save her children.

For readers who enjoy dark Gothic horror, zombie apocalypse fiction, brutal survival stories, female protagonist horror, infected horror, bleak emotional horror, and terrifying tales where love may be the only thing more dangerous than hunger.

Some wounds do not simply bleed.

They wait.
