In a small town surrounded by dense woods, a family of four moves into an old, abandoned house. But as they settle in, strange things begin to happen. Doors open and close on their own, footsteps echo through the halls, and objects move without explanation. The family tries to ignore the occurrences, but they become more frequent and more unsettling. When the daughter sees a ghostly figure in her room, they seek out the help of a paranormal investigator. But as they try to rid the house of its evil spirits, they realize they have underestimated the power of the supernatural. Will they make it out of the haunted house alive, or will they become the next victims of the ghosts who still haunt the place? This horror short story is full of unexpected twists and engaging characters that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.

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.
