Anna Wild receives a worrying phonecall from her semi-estranged mother, Helen. She needs to return home – right away – and she should bring her blowtorch.

There’s a mysterious horror roaming rural Harrogate. Animals are disappearing in the night; a reinforced, blood-stained cage sits in the Wild’s family barn; and Anna’s brother Graham has unexpectedly moved back home.

Greig Johnson’s horror comedy explores the special sort of pain that only a loved one can inflict, and the supernatural sort of discomfort that comes with transforming into a bloodthirsty werewolf.
