☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn 1427, two stone gargoyles are carved into the spires of a German cathedral, their eyes opening only during a storm—awake, but frozen in place. Five centuries later, in 1972, they’re unearthed and brought to a cemetery, where a Satanic cult reawakens them during a ritual. As the cultists fall to the gargoyles’ wrath, the pair flee into the night, seeking refuge with a blind farmer who offers them kindness. But the cult is not done—driven by vengeance, they summon a monstrous, tendril-laced entity to hunt them down. Now, the male gargoyle, Edward, must defend his mate and find a way to survive the night’s horrors.
In "Devil's Woman," a blind woman uncovers a horrifying legacy: her parents were Satanic cultists who summoned Satan into the world, and her mother bore her as the devil’s daughter. Haunted by the truth and repulsed by her husband, the Satanic Count’s bloodthirsty rituals, she flees their decaying estate, unleashing her powers to destroy it. But her escape is short-lived—she is captured and brought back by the Count and her aunt, who demand she fulfill her dark destiny.
In a forgotten corner of the 14th century, a deposed queen is exiled to a remote island, her once-grand castle dismantled and rebuilt in her solitude. When she calls upon Satan for vengeance, she unknowingly sets in motion a dark reckoning that binds her fate to the King’s. As he flees defeat by sea, a storm of black rain drives his ship to her shore—where he finds not justice, but a twisted mirror of his own ruin.
In the sun-scorched Australian Badlands, two young women seeking shelter stumble upon a silent town where every resident is ancient and voiceless. Drawn to a decaying manor, they spend the night—only to be pulled into a cursed painting by a demonic entity known as Voodoo, a parasitic being that drains the life from the townspeople, leaving them hollow. Now trapped in the town’s eerie grip, the girls must survive the slow decay of their own vitality as Voodoo’s hunger consumes them.
In the 19th century, two grave robbers unearth the body of a long-dead strangler, one of them stealing the man’s diamond ring. That night, the ghost of the executed killer returns, claiming the ring and using it to possess the thief—first forcing him to strangle his partner, then driving him to his own demise. The ring is reclaimed, and the grave is left undisturbed once more.
In 1922, an archaeologist, his wife, and his friend uncover the long-buried Tomb of Pharaoh Ramakhen—unaware that the ancient site holds a curse that will claim them one by one. As the desert night closes in, paranoia and terror take hold, unraveling their bonds and turning the tomb’s shadows into living nightmares. The woman’s desperate flight into the dunes may be her only chance, but the sands themselves seem to remember what the tomb has forgotten.
