THE BOOK
The Contemporary Final Girl's Guide to Survival is an essential for any contemporary horror girlie. I made this book a for a semester long senior thesis project. Written, illustrated, and bound by me, it was truly a passion project. The bubblegum color palette and the book's overall structure mimic the feel of a 19th century etiquette guide.
THE STRATEGY
The book is a satirical commentary on contemporary horror cinema. The final girl trope began in the 1970s, where women survived because of their purity or because they were rescued by men. Now, they survive because they are intelligent and can rely on their wit. The book highlights the absurdity of the situations that they make it out of and presents common sense as advice
