Hysterical

She’s not the final girl. She’s the reason there’s no one left.

In the chaotic allure of 2013 New York City, Jessie Anne appears to have it all sharp wit, quiet intensity, and a wild nightlife filled with underground raves and unconventional gigs. But beneath her composed exterior lies a fractured psyche consumed by unrequited love for her best friend, Tinsel, and a dangerous fascination with death.

As her infatuation with Tinsel deepens, Jessie’s double life begins to blur. The lines between love, envy, and obsession vanish, pulling her further into fantasies she can no longer control. People in her life become pawns—tools to process her frustration and rejection, leaving a bloody trail in their wake.

Hysterical is a visceral journey into the twisted psyche of a woman navigating love, obsession, and her most disturbing cravings. Amber Dean’s chilling debut blends biting humor with unnerving suspense, exploring the raw underbelly of city life where pleasure and peril collide.
