"I simply ask the world why. In a world full of people... Why me?" 

"in a world full of people, why not you Skylar." Harry says

"I don't understand why all bad things happen to me... Like the universe is using me as it's own modified tester toy. Let's see how many things one person could handle before it breaks." 

"baby, life's full of hell and heaven induced surprises, we're the inbetweeners, the ones between the good life and the bad. How can you not expect this? Is what I ask of anyone. We live in a roller coaster of emotions and once we get off the ride that is our lives, the park closes and we wish we could have had one more chance to ride but this time more aware of the twists that were coming. So live this life in the moment with me Skylar... Don't run from it." Harry States the simple words that have given off such meaning.

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.
