Collection: The Horrors Of Being Alive

The Horrors of Being Alive

An upcoming illustrated horror novel by Raven Molisee.

Dr. Prone Polkey can heal almost anyone. Except himself. When his mother dies, he goes home... back to a family that survived four hundred years by holding very still, and to a house that never learned to love the people inside it.

This collection gathers the world of The Horrors of Being Alive: the limited convention zines, prints, and artifacts from a story about medical trauma, inherited cruelty, found family, and bodies that refuse to become what others want them to be.

Some pieces here are hand-numbered, limited editions from convention runs — once they're gone, they won't return in this form. Each one is a door into the world Prone is slowly, dreadfully uncovering.

Come in close. The boy's been alone a long time.

Content note: This work contains medical trauma, coercive control, gaslighting, toxic family, childhood sexual abuse, and supernatural body horror. Please take care of yourself.
