In a secluded corner of a forgotten forest lay a malevolent relic, a dark box etched with ominous symbols. Generations told tales of the evil spirit within, so wicked that its name was never spoken.

Years ago, the reckless archaeologist Dr. Jonathan Wainwright and his team ventured into the forest. Dr. Wainwright touched the box, unleashing the spirit's curse, which twisted their minds.

Only historian Evelyn Blackwood could undo the curse. Guided by ancient texts and the forest's guardians, she deciphered the box's symbols one by one, weakening the spirit's grip.

Evelyn confronted the spirit and, with an incantation, sealed it back in the box, restoring peace to Ravenshadow. The cursed box remained guarded, and Evelyn's heroic tale endured as a symbol of courage against unspeakable evil.

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.
