When the Sirens Have Faded

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre famously asked viewers, "Who will survive, and what will be left of them?" The film itself focused much more on the first half of the question. With the anthology When the Sirens Have Faded, A Murder of Storytellers wants you to dig into the other: "What will be left of them?" When the sirens have faded, and the police are gone, where do the final girls go? What does the child do after they've been exorcised, when the demons have stopped bumping in the night? Is the past ever the past? Does horror and the trauma it brings with it ever actually die?
