They know Jacob is getting worse. Someone should have stopped him, especially during the beached whale incident.
Rationally, the locals should have returned home and ignored Jacob's twisted antics, but they were glued solidly to the ground, humanly curious, knowing something dreadful was about to happen.

They were cursed. They tried to deny it, but tragedy followed each of them.
Jacob, a wild teenager who roams the ghostly woods to inflict torture on small animals, steals the ancient Shadow Book of potions and rituals to bring back his Ma, but it comes with terrifying consequences.

Twin girls mysteriously disappear during a storm. The residents frantically band together and search for the girls, hoping to find them in time.
