The Writing Class
Clara Burns, creative writing instructor, conducts Friday afternoon classes at the Las Hermigas senior center. Her students, like most retirees, are short in the tooth, grinding their chompers to the gum lime; agonizing over wrinkles; sagging pecs, and bulging pots of cottage cheese-like flesh.

In addition, American Horrors includes a filmography of movies and telefilms and an annotated bibliography of books and articles about horror since 1968.
