Not far from the town of Stauford is Devils Creek. A church of sinister worship once stood there, with former priest Jacob Masters preaching the gospel of the nameless god. In 1983, the church was burned to the ground, and almost all members of the sect committed suicide. Only six of Jacob's children survived, nicknamed the "Stauford Six." Over time, their trials were forgotten, and the story of the mysterious sect turned into a terrible bedtime story. These days, Jack Tremley, one of the Six who became a successful artist, returns to Stauford to deal with the legacy of his deceased grandmother Imogen. Arriving, he encounters the secrets of his family and a seemingly long-buried past. But he does not yet know that the nameless god Jacob is alive, that in the cave under Devils Creek lurks a real and very ancient horror, which will soon burst out, absorbing everything around.
