Zoe is a timid student going to an all-girls school in Paris. She is comfortable with what she knows: her friends, her neighborhood, her school, her teacher, her parents. As a 10 day field trip to the French countryside is announced, she feels nervous at the thought of her life being disrupted. To add to her despair, frightening rumors about the rural dormitory start circulating at school, and she begins having nightmares. Thankfully, she has her two best friends, Amandine and Eloise, that she can count on for support. As the trio embarks on this adventure, they realize it is nothing like what they had imagined. Creepy woods, an isolated mansion, starving animals, boys without a home... and a series of inexplicable occurrences. How will Zoe survive? Will she ever make it home?

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.
