Mary Horror

Unwilling to stand around and wait while Eva's been taken over by one of the Despairity, Frost works tirelessly with Beau and Leo to figure out how to free her sister.

All you need is a hand mirror, matches, a candle, and complete isolation… You’ve heard rumors this game has mixed results. Option one is to see your future spouse’s face. Option two is a much more sinister outcome. Option two is Bloody Mary. Now that you know your options, will you walk a staircase in the dark?

No one will tell Eva and Frost the truth about the Blurred Ones. Not their hunter friend, and definitely not the parentals. Maybe it’s because Frost spent time in a psychiatric ward and Eva never ceases to think with her hormones. So, when the girls see an opportunity to meet Albert Knox, the most infamous Blurred One of all, they lie about their true plans and head out on their field trip to San Antonio. Eva thinks she can use her feminine wiles to woo Knox, but he has a couple more minions than they thought - and she ends up getting tossed through the window.

Guaranteed to give you the shivers, each collection includes familiar and loved creepy tales as well as those less well-known. With music by Benedict Edwards.

Eva and Frost are pretty stoked about their blooming hunting skills. But when they finally meet Raylan’s sister, Tess, after a witch-doctor hunt in New Orleans, the group dynamic gets rather awkward.

Preso da grande angoscia, raccolsi i miei speciali strumenti così da poter infondere una scintilla di vita nella cosa inanimata che giaceva ai miei piedi.
