_  This place has a way of making you feel like you not even alive or living , just an empty soul with no purpose or meaning . My daydream breaks when I feel something touch my slipper which rests against the leg of the chair . I look down and see a piece of paper but I cant see what is drawn onto it , so I reach down and hold it in both hands . Its a sketch of dead people , lifeless laying on a road but the people behind them are different , their bodies bloody,  shredded and mutated . Bones piercing through torn flesh as blood oozes down bruised ligaments , the way the bodies are drawn is inhumane and truly terrifying . There are words written at the top in bold pencil displayed above the mutated people who walk on the page , 'when there is no more room in hell , the dead will walk the earth ' . After reading that and the image being stuck in my head I get off my seat and walk over to the who was sat at the table , staring at me as she's the one who dropped the paper . I place the paper on the desk , purposely not looking at her as I know she is still staring at me . Just as im about to turn and walk away I feel cold fingers grip tightly around  my wrist . 'We're too late ' I shake my head in confusion whilst trying to pry my arm away from her but she just starts shouting what she whispered to me a minute ago . 'WE'RE TOO LATE'_

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.
