Do Not Weep For Me

Goffstown, New Hampshire has seen its share of supernatural mayhem, murder, and monsters. With the banishment of the demon James Moore, some in the town believed their bloody past was behind them. The devil knows better.

For weeks, an old crippled woman hesitates then waddles past the window of the Goffstown News building. On the day she finally enters the office, she has one hell of a story to tell the editor, Manuel Chance, but there is a caveat to publishing it. Manuel is skeptical of the bizarre tale and suspicious of her motives. When she removes her clothing to provide evidence for her story, his skepticism vanishes, but when he hears the basis for her caveat, his suspicion grows. She wants Manuel to investigate her husband to determine if he is behind the disappearance of four local children.

 As Paul Lane steps out of his home, uneasiness overwhelms him. While he's distracted, his daughter Cindy asks to play on the swing set in the backyard. In the unguarded moment, Paul agrees, making it the biggest mistake of his life. After Cindy disappears without a trace, a woman approaches Paul with an identical story. Together, they wait for the return of their children. When the two girls are found and returned to their parent's, relief turns to confusion after the two girls make an astonishing claim.  Confusion turns to horror when they discover the children have brought someone else back with them.

A battered, bruised, filthy, woman pulls her stolen Subaru into a parking lot across from The Goffstown Pawnshop. With two decomposing bodies in the back of the car, she has driven non-stop from the Midwest to procure an item from the owner of the pawnshop. Possessed, she will stop at nothing to retrieve it. Inside the shop, the owner and his assistant Rex, notice the woman on a surveillance camera. When the three of them do battle inside the pawnshop, it will be the first volley in a war to decide who will rule in Hell.
