YOUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE, YOUR CHILDREN ALL GONE

Sometime after WWII, the German village of Hemmersmoor is a place permeated by an unspoken evil. Legends tell of monsters and devils, but the true monsters are human, the true extent not revealed until the last story. Children who are victims of child abuse, incest, or worse go on to commit equally terrible acts on others in a cycle of violence. Narrators Alison Larkin and James Langton have the skill to make these creepy stories even creepier. Their gentle tones belie the horrors of a town seemingly lost in time.
