Publisher Description. Welcome to Altered States — Dynamite Entertainment's parallel reality in the vein of DC's Elseworlds and Marvel's What If?!
In the summer of 1976, Tori Sachs and her friends went to an innocent beach party to celebrate the end of high school… and wandered into a scene of satanic carnage that would shock the world!
Now, decades later, the truth can at last be told, and the burning questions answered: Why were the teens targeted for slaughter that night? And what unholy creature did they fall victim to?
Written by master of the macabre Ray Fawkes (Constantine, Justice League Dark) and illustrated by Alvaro Sarraseca, Altered States: Purgatori Grindhouse returns readers to the golden age of slasher entertainment — complete with sinfully era-appropriate covers from Joseph Michael Linsner, Lucio Parrillo, Mike Rooth, and cosplay by Rachel Hollon!
