A surreal reimagining of the minotaur myth, set in a desolate Miami mall. "Dead Mall" by Olivia West Lloyd
More About "Dead Mall": After a night of partying, The Girl
finds herself on an empty street in Downtown Miami with a strange man who
offers to walk her home. He tells her he knows a short cut through the old
mall. He coaxes The Girl inside, and then locks her in. Sorry, he says, it has
to eat. Inside, she is hunted - maybe herded - by a horned creature through an
increasingly confusing and irrational space. While hiding from the beast, she
encounters a sinister ball of yarn, a sentient escalator, a half-eaten woman,
and a very beautiful cow. When the horned creature abruptly disappears, The
Girl is welcomed by a group of women who claim to have slain the best. But her
relief is short-lived, and she realizes too late what (or who) these women eat
to survive.
