Mountains and Madness by D M DeLuca

Description

The apocalypse arrives with teeth, blood, paranoia, and a farmhouse that may be hiding something far worse than the infected outside.

Mountains and Madness by D. M. DeLuca is a brutal horror thriller that blends survival horror, psychological dread, dark comedy, and supernatural terror into a relentless descent into chaos.

Jed Sanderson has finally managed to go on a date after far too long alone. Naturally, civilization collapses almost immediately afterward.

As a violent infection spreads across the globe, transforming people into savage, bloodthirsty monsters, Jed escapes to his isolated mountain farm alongside a small group of survivors. Hidden deep in the wilderness, the farmhouse initially feels like sanctuary from the nightmare consuming the outside world.

It isn’t.

Jed’s brother Nate, struggling with severe mental illness and dwindling medication, becomes convinced the farmhouse itself is haunted. Strange noises, impossible events, and mounting paranoia begin to fracture the group’s fragile sense of safety. And as the infected gather beyond the walls, another horrifying possibility emerges: Nate may not be imagining things after all.

Caught between the infected hordes outside, an unnatural presence inside the house, and a violent cult hunting one of the survivors, the group descends into a nightmare fueled by fear, exhaustion, narcotics, dark humor, and desperation.

Blending claustrophobic horror with razor-edged tension and flashes of bleak comedy, Mountains and Madness delivers an apocalyptic survival story where every layer of safety peels away to reveal something even more terrifying underneath.

Perfect for readers who love queer horror, infected apocalypse fiction, haunted house terror, cult horror, and emotionally messy survivors trying to stay alive while reality itself unravels.
