Chapter 1 Once Upon a Time
Once upon a time, there were things that go bump in the night, an' when you heard 'em, y'all high tailed it outta there so's not to get got! And those poor souls who didn't make it? Well... they became abominations!
Well, I guess we could start with 'it was a dark and stormy night...' I'm not sayin' it was or it wasn't... All I know is Alberto got lost out in the woods. And suddenly the hunter became the prey.
Actually, I'm gettin' ahead o' myself in my old age. Let's take ya back a week or so when strange things started turnin' up 'round here.
See, there was this new fella, goes by the name of Doc Jasper. He moved in recently and he started workin' as the county mortician. And we hadn't had one in quite a while so, many o' the towns folk were mighty appreciative to have 'em around!
Good guy, that Doc Jasper!
One day a severed head appeared at his doorstep. Now, ya gotta admit, that would'a scared the hell outta anyone. But Doc Jasper, he just picked it up, and not havin' the rest 'o the body, he put it in the freezer to ask if anybody'd recognize the poor sap.
Now, Doc Jasper never did find out who been missin' the head, but he ended up crematin' it, cause what the hell was he 'spose to do with the damn thing?
Next day, there were tracks. Big ones.
No one cared until whatever it was started attackin' the livestock! Johnny's cows lost all their calves in one night! Just what kinda creature could do somethin' like that?
And Ol' Henry lost all his hens! He could'a blamed it on the foxes, but no Fox makes claw marks that big! His coop was completely destroyed, I tell ya! Nothin' left!
Even Ol' Marty's sheep... all that's left is a bunch of fluff and blood. Poor thing's never stood a chance! Not that sheep have much of a survival instinct anyway. But that's 'sides the point!
The point is, the whole town was up and rarin' to hunt this thing down! It would'a been good if they could'a tracked it. But the damn thing didn't leave much in the way of tracks.
Now tell me! What kinda predator just up and disappears without a trace? Well, I'll tell ya. One that is not meant to roam God's green Earth!
This thing was a demon! Vanished before we could set our eyes on 'im!
We set out traps to catch the beast. But he wouldn't get caught! Like he knew we was waitin' for him. When we saw this, we figured he had to be some sorta intelligent bein'. We just didn't know what!
And still the monster only went after the animals... Or so we thought. After all, who'da thunk they'd go after men? We've got guns and knives and traps! Anythin' with half a wit would keep away if it knew what was good for 'em!
But little did we know things would start gettin' worse.
