Haunted by his tragic past, Jack LeBlanc, a scarred introvert living in the bayous of southern Louisiana, signs up for a clinical trial to test the miraculous new tissue-regeneration drug, Obsidian. It isn't long until Jack and the other lab rats discover that the medication is not what was promised. They're about to find out the hard way that the pills have nightmarish consequences...
From the author that brought you Writhe and Bad God's Tower comes a riveting tale that is equal parts medical thriller and monstrous body horror. Vanity Kills delves deep into body dysmorphia, narcissism, conspiracy, and revenge as the ensemble of richly developed characters embark on a quest for visual perfection that will chill you to the bone.
Based loosely on Summers' 2020 feature film, Obsidian, Vanity Kills will have you questioning the side effects of every pill you take.
