Description

Have an amazing Christmas everyone, if you celebrate, and thank you so much for all of your support!!


In the winter of 1596, famine and desperation turn London’s Newgate Prison into a place of cannibalism and despair. What follows is a chilling legend of a spectral black dog that stalks the guilty through cells, streets, and snow-covered alleys, raising the question of whether the monster was supernatural, or born from human cruelty itself.
