Private Project

Bones Picked

The year is 1973, four scholars are researching the roots of folklore stories from central England. Perhaps venturing too close to the truth, they fall prey to witchcraft, a spell that removes them from this reality. More than 40 years later, the hex weakens and the
scholars find themselves returned home. Confused and alarmed, they nevertheless resume their discussions, sharing tales of witchcraft, demonology, cannibalism and inland mermaids. Will they finish their research?
