Dark Frontiers: Vampire Chronicles: Blood in Deadwood
Deadwood, Dakota Territory. 1877.
The gold rush has turned the Black Hills into a lawless boomtown overflowing with gamblers, gunmen, miners, and opportunists chasing fortune beneath the shadow of the pines. But beneath the noise of pickaxes and saloon pianos, something far older has awakened.
Bodies are beginning to appear in the hills around Deadwood; bloodless, mutilated, and marked by strange wounds no animal could have made. Rumors spread quickly through the mining wolves, spirits, Indian curses.
Sheriff Seth Bullock fears the truth may be worse.
His search for answers brings three hardened Deputy U.S. Marshals to Deadwood, men whispered about in frightened corners of the frontier as the Nightmare Hunters.
Killian Davis — physician, gambler, and reluctant man of faith.
Jedediah Raines — gunslinger, tracker, and veteran lawman.
Declan Caine — Irish warrior forged by violence and haunted by old darkness.
Together, they have faced creatures most men believe exist only in nightmares.
But Deadwood is different.
The evil rising in the Black Hills is organized. Intelligent. Ancient.
Led by a ruthless elder, a growing vampire coven moves through the frontier with terrifying purpose, feeding in the shadows while testing the limits of men bold enough to hunt them.
As fear grips the camp and violence erupts in the streets, the hunters must uncover what lurks beneath Deadwood before the town collapses into chaos and bloodshed.
Because gold may have built Deadwood…
But blood will decide who survives it.
Perfect for fans
• supernatural westerns
• gothic horror
• historical dark fantasy
• gritty frontier action
Blood in Deadwood blends brutal Old West realism with atmospheric horror in a cinematic tale of monsters, myth, and men willing to stand against the dark.
