Nestled among the rolling hills and misty lochs of Scotland’s quiet countryside lies a peculiar region, an apparent hotspot of extraterrestrial activity. Here, local residents have not only been plagued by frightening, otherworldly encounters, but also by the scorn of a national media frenzy. Across the globe, other unsuspecting victims fall prey to a different kind of entity; a ghostly presence that materializes in the dead of night. This dreaded nocturnal visitor takes many forms, wielding the power to paralyze its prey with fear and, some say, perhaps even to kill. In the far reaches of Scandinavia, an equally haunting tale unfolds with an ancient tone that bears a dire warning. Those brave, or perhaps foolish, enough to risk venturing too close may find themselvesfacing a premature and torturous demise.
