In a society obsessed with a zombie apocalypse, where every single person has its own dystopian fantasy, it's kind of hard to believe that an actual apocalypse of flesh-eating dead would ever exist. 

A virus starts appearing in remote Russian villages, but those were quickly dismissed by the government and the media as a new type of the flu virus. As more and more rumors about what kind of disease is actually breaking are starting to flood the internet, the rest of the world starts pressuring Russia to explain what is really going on. These are times of delicate international relationships, when a false step can mean that a Third World War might happen.  

Anya  lives in small town in a small country, the last place you would expect to be the center of attention. But since some people started to feel unusual symptoms - which are being dismissed as a new case of a flu virus - everything started to go from bad, to worse. Chaos settles in, and without answers, fear rules the streets. This is where our story with Anya starts, as she tries to unravel what is going on and deals with all that's starting to happen in her country - and, as well, with the rest of the world.

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.
