1643:
A small group of Parliamentarian soldiers are ambushed in an isolated
part of Northern England. Their only hope for survival is to flee into the
nearby Moresby Wood… unwise though that may seem. For Moresby Wood is known
to be an unnatural place, the realm of witchcraft and shadows, where the devil
is said to go walking by moonlight...
Seventeen
men enter the wood. Only two are ever seen again, and the stories they tell of
what happened make no sense. Stories of shifting landscapes, of trees that
appear and disappear at will... and of something else. Something dark.
Something hungry.
Today:
Five women are headed into Moresby Wood to discover, once and
for all, what happened to that unfortunate group of soldiers. Led by Dr Alice
Christopher, an historian who has devoted her entire academic career to
uncovering the secrets of Moresby Wood. Armed with metal detectors, GPS units,
mobile phones and the most recent map of the area (which is nearly 50 years
old), Dr Christopher’s group enters the wood ready for anything.
Or
so they think.
