In the summer of 2024, reports of the dreaded creature known as “The Shug” begin to surface once again across the British countryside.
John, an alcoholic still haunted by a violent encounter with the creature during his teenage years, is forced to confront the nightmare he has spent decades trying to forget. As fear spreads and the sightings intensify, John reluctantly joins forces with journalist Alice Bowmer and paranormal YouTuber “The Hobbo Adventurer.” Together, they begin investigating the growing reports, only to discover that the truth behind the legend may be far darker—and far more personal—than any of them imagined.
Look for The Shug coming soon.
