β¦ Synopsis
As seen on Destination America's episode "America's Bermuda Triangle", featuring tales from The Bridgewater Triangle, an area many consider to be the paranormal epicenter of New England....For centuries, it has remained hidden deep in the heart of the Hockomock Swamp. The Native Americans called it "The Place Where Spirits Dwell"; a sacred place of untold terrors, where time itself stands still. Now its evil influence is spreading to the nearby town of Hevven, Massachusetts, corrupting all that it encounters. Soon, no one will be able to escape The Still...The Still is a collection of nine intertwining short stories set in and around the Hockomock Swamp, New England's second largest wetland. The Hockmock is the subject of many reported encounters of the unexplained, and is widely considered to be New England's paranormal hot spot. At the center of King Philip's War, the swamp is reputed to harbor the restless spirits of Native Americans and Colonials alike, along with sightings of UFOs, Bigfoot-like creatures, huge black dogs with glowing red eyes, giant snakes, ghost lights, and various other phenomena. While not a prequel in the traditional sense, The Still connects to several characters and events from Rice's debut novel, Rebel Angels, once again exploring the unassuming town of Hevven, which itself is a fictionalized version of Bridgewater, Massachusetts. The Still is for mature audiences.
