The first story discusses years of continual poltergeist activity that were witnessed in the now demolished Langenhoe Chapel. It was an old English church with a very bloody history.

The first story features one of the most peculiar cases of UFO-related disappearance encountered so far. It revolves around Granger Taylor, a Canadian man who had a strong belief in extraterrestrial life. In 1980, he vanished without a trace. The second tale is inspired by the real-life events that formed the basis for the 2017 Spanish horror movie, “Veronica.” This story follows a young Spanish girl who, after attempting to communicate with her deceased father using an Ouija board, finds herself at the mercy of a malevolent and powerful spirit that terrorizes her and her family.
