They’re protectors. And their latest stop—a quiet town in upstate Ohio, 1950—will test them like never before.A terrified little girl is trapped in the clutches of a satanic cult, and what first appears to be a case of abuse soon reveals something far worse.

Can they save the girl before the final curtain falls?
