The October Creature | Original Horror Story | The Haunted History Club
October, 1924. Deep in the English countryside, something ancient is stirring in the woods surrounding Harwood Manor.
Livestock have been found mutilated, a young farmhand has vanished without a trace, and the terrified villagers refuse to venture beyond their homes after dark.
When two experienced hunters are summoned to the estate, they expect to encounter a dangerous animal. But what they discover lurking amongst the trees is something far more disturbing.
Something that wears the faces of the dead.
Something that calls for help in familiar voices.
And something the villagers have feared for generations.
As the hunters uncover the horrifying truth behind an ancient harvest tradition, they realise that some secrets are protected at a terrible price.
And this October, the harvest demands another sacrifice.
Set against the cold, mist-covered fields of 1920s rural England, The October Creature is an original, atmospheric horror story of ancient folklore, deception and the terrifying things that wait beyond the treeline.
