But she can't suppress her growing dread that her unborn child is in danger...Abby MacNeil, a lonely 8 year old, stumbles upon three ancient gravemarkers in the woods, earthly evidence that Windale's witches, a trio of blood sisters executed by hanging, were once very real...When Wendy performs a harmless channelling ritual on a crisp autumn night, a long buried power takes a terrifying new form: a demonic creature with the power to shatter an unsuspecting town.
