When a devoted husband vanishes during his evening run, his wife Cora refuses to accept the police’s easy answers. Her desperate search pulls her into a nightmare of blood, muscle, and madness—where primal hunger meets the modern world.
Alongside a reluctant gym bro named Troy, Cora uncovers a horrifying truth about the man stalking her town… a cannibal gourmet who grades his meals by muscle tone and marbling. As Halloween looms, the line between predator and prey begins to blur—and the hungriest beast might not be the one in the woods.
This twisted novella-length horror story from David O’Hanlon serves up dark humor, brutal tension, and grisly realism, blending serial killer terror, survival horror, and macabre culinary obsession into one unforgettable tale.
Perfect for fans of Hannibal, Dexter, and The Texas Chain Saw Massacre—this story will leave you horrified, amused, and maybe a little hungry.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
