The Pink Agave Motel & Other Stories.

"The Pink Agave Motel & Other Stories" by V Castro is a collection of interconnected horror shorts that draw on Indigenous folklore to explore themes of power and control. The stories feature monsters and flesh-eating seductresses targeting corrupt men, with a focus on desires for consumption, destruction, and sex. While the prose can be overly poetic and the descriptions of blood and gore repetitive, lovers of sexy gothic horror will find plenty to enjoy in this sultry and creepy collection.
