The Present. Something sinister lurks in quiet suburbia. A Paranormal Team investigate poltergeist activity terrorizing one family in the unassuming Essex town of Manningtree. As night falls, a nightmare awaits them; whatever the motive, it is personal. The Past. England is rife with civil war. Life is cheap, and death trivial. Though, for the common man, another war rages. It spreads like wildfire, preying on the weak. God-fearing folk employ the skills of one man, the Witchfinder. His success speaks of a talent to seek out and rid the countryside of Witches, the Devil's Whores. Lies and persecution are never forgotten… Welcome to the nightmare. Welcome to Manningtree.
