Human-Shaped Fiends

A brutal Western saga collides with metafictional horror in 1850s Los Angeles and modern-day Hollywood.
In 1854, Felipe Alvitre leads a gang on a bloody spree across the San Gabriel Valley, igniting the citizens' fury. Sheriff James Barton, battling addiction and a dark obsession, struggles to maintain order as the violence escalates.

Decades later, Chandler Morrison, a self-absorbed novelist, grapples with writing a Western while battling his own demons. As fiction and reality blur, Morrison confronts the darkness within himself and the expectations of his fans. Will he succumb to the chaos, or find redemption in the face of human-shaped fiends?
