This was a bad idea. Going into the woods in the middle of the night is never a good idea. You only complied because of that stupid dare. Your friends are a bunch of jerkwads but still, they know your a coward too. You came to the woods with Marie but she abandoned you. As far as you're aware. Her hunt should soon begin. And now it finally has. Except you're the prey. All you hear is the sickening and hauntingly sweet melody. The melody that put her to sleep every night as a child. You can feel the tune whistle throughout the trees.They play in short sputters. Never long enough to catch the full song but still giving you a slight tune to remember. That's when you know, she's got you.

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.
