DEMONS WAY - The Sapphire Stone

Dale and Susan get away from the City for a much deserved break in the Countryside. They stop off at a roadside stall, run by a mysterious old woman who insists that Dale leaves with an ancient Dagger and an odd digital tablet, of which she calls 'The Sapphire Stone'.
When the couple reach their destination, an old wooden cabin, for Dale all Hell breaks loose. Who was this Mysterious woman? In fact who is Susan? Is he going crazy? Or should he act on the clues given to him? Surely that is the only route that will save his Soul?

Writer Statement

The Sapphire Stone is a Demon Horror short script that transcends into a nightmare for the Protagonist Dale. I wrote this script as a stand alone story, however, once complete I made the decision to continue writing other scripts that easily slotted into place to create the anthology series 'Demons Way', based on the mythology of Demons and the collection of souls. That said, this Pilot episode 'The Sapphire Stone' sits well as a tense twisting journey of a Horror short in its own right.
