In a sleepy seaside town in 1980s Oregon, Archie Coomes and his friends are convinced that an unknown evil has been unleashed on the town after his dad's construction company opens the cliff beneath the old Langdon place--widely believed to be haunted--and the adults in town begin to act strangely.

Maybe Archie Coomes has been watching too many horror movies.
All of a sudden, the most ordinary things have taken on a sinister edge: a penny on a doormat. An odd man in a brown suit under a streetlamp. The persistent sound of an ax chopping in the middle of the night.
He keeps telling himself that this is Seaham, a sleepy seaside town where nothing ever happens. Or at least nothing did, until his dads construction company opened up the cliff beneath the oldsome say cursedLangdon place.
Soon, though, he and his friends cant deny it: more and more of the adults in town are acting strangely. An ancient, long-buried evil has been unleashed upon the community, and its up to the kids to stop it before its too late. . . .
