The girl turned the corner, clutching the the flashlight shakily. It was the only object in this horrible place. Loud footsteps echoed through the hallway that she had just turned onto, getting closer and closer, and yet, she couldn't see a thing. They grew louder, causing her to quickly shut the flash light off and crouch down in the darkness. "P-please no." She whimpered, covering her ears when the footsteps got unbearably loud. 
         And then, they stopped.
       Horrified, the girl took her hands away from her ears and tried to see through the pitch-black darkness, but still couldn't sense anyone nearby. "H-hello?" She squeaked, trying to find the switch on her flashlight. 
        A soft chuckle came from behind her, sending shivers down the girl's spine. And that's when she heard it, that same hoarse voice that haunted her nightmares. 
                                                                   "You're never leaving."

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.
