“Things calls to things, if ya get my meanin’, and some things spring ye farth from t’other...And things which may be called up might be sent asunder, but leave behind a trace of sumthin’, unseeable and strange. I can shew ya how to speak to ‘em...”
― Old Whateley

The events of September 1928 lives on in the memory and traditions of the people of Dunwich Massachusetts, a sleepy little town in the backwaters of a long forgotten section of the state, though few speak of it. The old men down at Osborn’s store say nothing of it to outsiders, but a few tales have crept out in the intervening years.

When they reach the right age, all in town are told the tale of the Whateley family and the horrors they visited upon the town. About how the Whateley mansion exploded on the morning of September 9, 1928, and let something out. Something invisible which left tracks like an elephant and killed nine, leaving behind only hunks of half- digested meat. About the otherworldly light that showed on Sentinel Hill on September 15. And about the silence that followed for 35 years.

Until the singing from Cold Spring Glen was first heard in 1963.
