The foghorn-like siren wails as the townhall clock strikes seven. Shadows lengthen over Fellson’s rusted cars and rotting buildings. Citizens scramble indoors, slamming shutters and bracing wooden barricades against the encroaching dark. Those left outside face the ancient, flesh-hungry horrors crawling from the woods. Decades of isolation have made this routine grimly familiar. No one leaves. No one arrives. Only survival remains, fragile as the barricades themselves.
