Becky Cloonan and Tula Lotay absolutely hit it out of the park with this erotically charged piece of folk horror set in an English village in the 1600s. Anna, a young woman trapped in a loveless marriage to the local witch hunter, begins to experience dream-like visitations from a dark, mysterious, possibly infernal figure with lustful intentions. Meanwhile a murder has taken place in the village, and witch-hunting hysteria is taking hold, with one woman already having lost her life. Can Anna hold true against the seductive powers of darkness? Cloonan and Lotay both handle art duties, with the former handling the waking hours where Anna’s life begins to unravel while the latter applies her smoky painted style to Anna’s fevered dreams.
