My mom is a scientist and my dad left my mom. I really didnt know what was going on at the time since I was young. Ever since she told me to stay home and wait for her. For some reason she never really trusted me around other kids. Said I was special.

During the night before my mother would leave she would say to me," be careful Soma and remember....stay still so they dont take you away." I never understood but I did what she said.

My life seemed normal but can it really be like that forever?

The Hound

65 parts Complete

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.
