Goat Blood
In the heart of a dense forest, nestled in the bed of a pickup truck, two coworkers, Pablo and Owen, find themselves waiting for their dates. What starts as a casual debate about tacos, friendships, sexuality, and heritage gradually transforms into something deeper—an undeniable attraction simmering beneath their banter.
However, their unexpected connection is soon overshadowed by the arrival of a menacing Chupacabra, threatening to shatter the tranquility of their evening. Owen's terror at the creature's appearance pales in comparison to his shock when he learns that the Chupacabra has been a constant presence in Pablo's life.
"Goat Blood" weaves together the threads of passion, queer identity, and the triumphant conquest of personal demons. Against the backdrop of rich Latine folklore, this story explores the complexities of desire and self-discovery in the face of a formidable supernatural threat.
