It was a cold, snowy winter day.
"Reese! Please wake up!" Gwen had found Reese in the Woods behind their house, buried in snow. 
Reese was staying the afternoon with them, because it was too dangerous on the roads for him to go back home. Reese was wearing no coat, gloves, or hat, because he thought he was just stepping out for a second. 
They tried carrying him inside, but soon realized dragging him would be the better option. "Why didn't he just listen to me?" They thought. As soon as they got him inside and by the fire, they wrapped him up and and held him close by their side. It was an hour before Reese woke up.
"Gwen? What happened?" 
"All I know is you wanted a better view of the snow on the trees when all of a sudden I hear a big sweep of snow coming from the woods," Gwen said.
Reece thought for a second, hand going to his head. He suddenly looked up at Gwen, eyes wide, and said, "He was there."

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
