A nerve-shredding slice of rural horror for fans of Adam Nevill and Andrew Michael Hurley.

When Rick digs deeper into the area’s dark history, he makes a chilling discovery about a local family, a devastating fire, and a centuries-old curse. Has Rick disturbed an ancient evil, and who, or what, is stalking him now? Some souls should never be summoned...
