OCTOPUS: The secrets of the sea will come to you in dreams
When Dark Reality becomes Reality, the fight for sanity begins…
Along the Sunderland seafront, people have been disappearing under mysterious circumstances.
Local best-selling author and amateur journalist Richard Shore has reported these disappearances in his media outlet The Shore-Line.
Shore is approached by the grieving partners of the missing to investigate further as their disappearances have not been resolved by the police who seem to have given up the search.
But Shore is not convinced that something unnatural is happening along the seafront…
Not until his wife is found in a coma on Roker Pier and his five year old son has gone missing.
Shore’s life begins to spiral down until one day he finds an injured, dying octopus on the beach…
Shore’s life is about to change again.
