In the first spine-tingling story of Mr. Bones - Mr. Bones escapes
by hitching a ride on a long haul that is traveling across the
country. It's now harvest season in a small rural town in Kansas.
Mr. Bones jumps off the back of the truck, after crossing a bridge
in the middle of the night. He wades into a cornfield and holed up
inside a farmer's barn. This skillfully crafted story is like
placing your imagination in a pot of water and setting it on a
stove. Your imagination will start to simmer, then get hot, and
soon it will boil over; as you drift into this small rural town of
Dole - where greed pays no mind to those in the way. It's about a
rich man's son who sets up a land swindling scheme with the meanest
judge in all of Kansas. With lies and betrayal and a man called
Blade - the scheme goes horribly out of control. Who will live and
who will die in this terrifying episode of Mr. Bones? That's for
you to find out.
The year was 1910. Location; Ironbark, New York - a small out post
carved out of the forest by settlers, fur traders and Native
Indians on the banks of Lake Ontario. As winter gave way to spring,
children of the town began disappearing. The first child abducted
was Jamie Chamber. His body was recovered; it was a gruesome sight
- he was brutally murdered. As panic swept through the town,
Jamie's childhood sweetheart cried out for him to come back. From
out of the darkness the ultimate Apex Predator appears. It has no
fear. It cannot be stopped from what it's searching for. It's now -
2011, New York City. The city is crumbling from the grip of a child
serial killer. Detectives David Bradshaw and his partner, William
Hall must find the killer before he strikes again. While combing
through one of the crime scenes, David discovers a bootbrint he had
seen before. His mind unravels. A lump grows inside his throat
staring at the deep impression left in the mud. Come on a
terrorizing journey with David and William as they wade through
unspeakable horror, which ultimately unlocks David's memory to
where he had seen the print before. But be warned - that bootprint
will lead David and William straight into the twilight zone where
they come face to face with Mr. Bones.
