Summary
It’s move-in day, and students from across the country converge on the campus of Yersin University to start the new school year. But after a looming pandemic strikes the college, a single dorm complex is quarantined with all of the students inside, and what first starts as youthful freedom from authority soon devolves into a violent new society.
Written by author and playwright Clay McLeod Chapman and illustrated by Jey Levang, Lazaretto is student body horror taken to the extreme.
