Fact and fiction collide when a gruesome urban myth creeps out of the forest, bringing terror to the little town of Creekwood. Will psychic psychologist Marnie Reilly bury her past demons? Or will they send her to an early grave?

Haunted by dreams of an icepick wielding stranger hunting her in the woods behind her house, Marnie Reilly waves it off as a trauma induced nightmare. After all, who wouldn’t experience night terrors after twelve months of murder and mayhem?

Then October takes on a more chilling vibe when a corpse is discovered in the hay maze on her property and a local girl disappears from the road outside her home.

But when disturbing effigies dressed in the bloodstained clothes of missing women are dropped at her doorstep, the psychic psychologist races against time to save the women of Creekwood, including herself.

Is urban legend The Poacher alive and on a killing spree? Or is something more sinister at play?

Welcome to Creekwood. Where Halloween is murder!
