WHAT YOU WHISPER, WHAT YOU HIDE, WHAT YOU FEAR...

THE TOWN KNOWS.

Thirty years ago, Freddie Parham did the unthinkable. In the depths of the infamous Vanek House, he sacrificed six lives to unknown dark forces.

Now an inmate at a mental health facility, Freddie has become the servant of Martha Lange, the leader of a dark, local cult. Bringing to life the monstrosities Freddie paints on his canvas, he sets out to perform the Ritual of the Four Nights, which will awaken the entity sleeping beneath the town of White Harbor.

Elsewhere in town, Peter Lange and his friends are gathered at a local bar, when a mysterious figure from their past puts the group in mortal danger. They must uncover where the key to it all lies. Is it in their experiences inside the Vanek House? In the "safe place" where two of the group began a secret love affair? In the crawlspace beneath Peter's home, where his greatest fears still live?

An inexplicable blackout devours White Harbor. The blue moon rises. The First Night has begun.

The first of four nights to awaken God and remake the world.
