A grieving man is offered one last moment with his husband—for a price. A dark, queer horror about love, loss, and dangerous longing.
Description
Grief is a wound. What if someone offered to reopen it… just one more time?
In Wretch, Eric LaRocca delivers a hypnotic, transgressive descent into love, loss, and the dangerous allure of memory. After the death of his husband, Simeon Link is left untethered—adrift in a world that no longer makes sense, desperate for something, anything, that might ease the ache.
That’s when he finds The Wretches.
What begins as a support group quickly reveals itself to be something far more unsettling: a clandestine community offering not comfort, but temptation. Through them, Simeon encounters Porcelain Khaw—a mysterious figure who claims he can grant the grieving one final, intimate moment with the person they’ve lost.
But nothing comes without a cost.
As Simeon is drawn deeper into this strange, seductive world, the boundaries between love and obsession, memory and reality, begin to collapse. What does it mean to hold on to someone who is gone? And how far would you go for one more touch, one more moment, one more goodbye?
Lush, hallucinatory, and unapologetically dark, Wretch explores grief as both a sanctuary and a trap—where desire lingers, bodies betray, and love itself becomes something unsettlingly alive.
