After purchasing the Giles estate in rural Hampshire, Dr. Richard Harvey considered himself lucky. The long-abandoned property came at a bargain price, and the old manor house was beautiful. But following a series of strange events, he began to regret his decision. Voices, and other noises in the night, an encounter with a sinister man, and the feeling that someone—or something—was watching them, plagued the new tenants of the refurbished hall. At wits' end, Dr. Harvey contacted his friend, ex-British Army officer and occult investigator Jonathan Quint. Plunged into a world of unearthly horror, the men discovered an outside force of great power and evil at work on the estate, one with the ability to not only probe minds and manipulate thought, but alter the very fabric of reality itself. And it was but a harbinger of greater evil to come!
With the beast came the murders. With the murders came the fear. It stalks the foggy streets, dark alleys, and deserted quays. It glowers in the dark corners of public houses. And it bides patiently at cold hearthsides. Some claim it to be none other than Black Shuck, the legendary harbinger of ill-fortune and death. Consulting detective Sherlock Holmes has his own hypothesis, believing the murders to be the work of a monomaniac—a madman with a singular and deadly obsession. But when he and Dr. Watson witness what seems to be the impossible, they enlist the aid of occult detective Thomas Carnacki. Together they pursue the beast through the town's dark streets and surrounding woods. But even with their skills combined, how can they hope to fight an entity able to possess the minds and bodies of the very people they're trying to protect?
A tale of mystery, horror, and adventure from the lost files of Dr. John H. Watson.
The brutal murders of John and Harriet Minster shocked the sleepy town of Middlesbrough, Ohio. The prime suspect, their son Charlie, was found next to their battered bodies, the murder weapon in hand. But Charlie's best friend, Sam Birch, doesn't believe for a moment he's guilty of the crimes, and is determined to clear his name. At the asylum, he finds Charlie in a manic state, babbling incoherently of pursuit by a nightmarish entity. Sam realizes something all too real is at work in their town, one connected to his own experiences as a child. It all started with the strange, old book he found in his grandfather's attic. With it, he had pierced the veil of another dimension, and drawn the attention of that which abides within. Plagued with visions ever since, Sam vows to put a stop to the threat, not only for the sake of his own safety and sanity, but for that of the town as well.
It's Christmas Eve, and Carnacki awakens to find himself imprisoned somewhere beneath London. An odd note provides the only clue to the nature of his imprisonment and the identity of his captors. But he soon finds out that he's not alone, and that an Outside force and its sinister agents have conspired to make sure this Christmas will be his last! Undaunted, he explores, and is drawn into an extra-dimensional world from which he must escape.
