Robert Willoughby was a natural guy. All he wanted in life was a quiet place to live, and a cabin in front/across from a deep, lush forest was where his eyes were set. However, when his life was cut short in the 1960s by starvation (he was in a grizzly bear attack, where his nightgown was ripped open and the immense weight of the bear's paws had broken/dislocated his jaw, he could not eat or drink, and lost an unhealthy amount of weight), his dream was shattered, like someone had taken a mallet and crushed it into tiny pieces. Since that night, Robert has been roaming the Earth as a frail, skeleton-like ghost, warning ongoers of the same fate that awaits them if they venture too deep into the forest like he did. He desperately wants to be heard and decides to book a room in Hallowed Spirits (renamed, formerly known as the Spirit Halloween Facility), where he is finally understood and feels like he is heard...

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.
