Kdesi na kansaském venkově, na konci temné cesty vedoucí zbytky otevřené prérie, stojí téměř zapomenutý dům sester Finchových. Celé roky zel prázdnotou, zcela opuštěný, zarostlý plevelem a vysokou trávou. Jeho dveře se mají poprvé za několik desítek let znovu otevřít. Avšak za nimi, skryté v neprostupných stínech, cosi vyčkává a touží se setkat s nově příchozími… Když úspěšného autora hororových románů Sama McGarvera pozvou, aby strávil Halloween v jednom z nejslavnějších strašidelných domů v zemi, zdráhavě souhlasí. Alespoň nebude sám: společnost mu budou dělat tři další mistři děsu, spisovatelé, kteří mají stejně jako on zásadní podíl na podobě současného hororu. Entita, kterou v domě nevědomky probudí, je však následuje do jejich domovů, trýzní je a dotyčným hrozí, že se stanou součástí krvavého odkazu Kill Creeku.
