DemonsSometimes things that go bump in the night are terrifyingly real. A young newly single parent soon finds out that the ghostly visitations in her new apartment are far more personal and frightening than she could have ever imagined. In this chilling tale she quickly discovers the true depravity and the alarming coping mechanisms the human mind is horrifyingly capable of.EdwardLove is blind, but is it blind enough for a recently bereaved young woman who finds herself drawn to the shadowy figure lurking in the grave yard. Edward is the burnt and disfigured man who appears barely human at all but displays more gentle humanity than she could ever have dreamt.PiroskaWith its claws plunged into the darker Hungarian telling of the tale and eagerly succumbing to the interpretations of seduction and lost innocence, Piroska is red riding hood with fear and fervour, discovery and desire. The ultimate telling of the brutal initiation of womanhood complete with an irresistible and deliciously deadly big bad wolf “ everyone "s favourite villain.
