ONRYO - The Ancient Curse That Still Haunts Modern Japan

In the windswept highlands of Scotland, where ancient stones mark forgotten graves and the mist carries whispers of the dead, something dark rides the winter gales---something that transforms the very air we breathe into a highway for the restless spirits of the damned.

THE SLUAGH - When Death Takes Flight

In the late 1980s, hackers interrupted a Wyoming television broadcast with a video of disembodied human heads performing disturbing poses while high-pitched sounds caused viewers to experience everything from nausea to hallucinations. The perpetrators were never found, and in July 2025, the same footage hijacked a Brazilian news broadcast, proving that some digital nightmares refuse to stay buried.

THE STALLO - Giants in the Arctic Dark

The old-timers in Frederick County have a saying: "When the moon is dark and the woods grow still, the Dwayyo walks." They warn you never to venture into the Catoctin Mountains alone after sunset. Never follow the howls that sound almost human. As the legends tell it, the creature that stalks those ancient Appalachian hills can smell fear from miles away, and it delights in the chase more than the kill. It's not just a predator—it's a hunter with human intelligence wrapped in a wolf's body, standing seven feet tall on legs that
shouldn't support such weight, watching you with eyes that gleam with supernatural cunning.
