In 1695, Elizabeth Ainsley was accused of witchcraft and betrayed by James Beaumont—the one person she had trusted. He did not know what he was about to set in motion for his family. By the 1940s, the Beaumonts had returned to Shady Hollow to operate a coal mine, and their daughter Sally vanished in the woods. Her parents died of grief. Their son John grew up in an orphanage. In 1975, John returned to sell the mining rights—and was the only one to walk back from a trip into the woods that also included two miners. Thirty-five years later, in 2015, five indie filmmakers travel to Shady Hollow to document the 1975 incident and the town's history. The townspeople are unwelcoming. The urban legend of the Hollow Creek Witch does not stay legendary for long. A first-person horror game spanning centuries of a cursed family and the place that made them.
