These incidents appear to be connected to a rash of big cat sightings, and something horrible seems to be lurking in the woods.Is Andy cursed to be always unsuccessful in love, or is the curse something much darker, something that will arouse his primeval terrors?'Love may be on the horizon but, beware, something wicked this way comes.'
