Description
Desper Hollow begins with Granny Mustard's decision to live forever, but her untimely demise sets off a chain of events. Her granddaughter Jenkie takes up the mantle, using an unperfected immortality recipe and a friend named Bink to create a new life in Desper Hollow. However, the power of this experiment soon spirals out of control, unleashing a terrifying force that threatens the living. As the situation escalates, two outsiders become entangled in the horror: Kathy Shaw, a mountain resident, and Jack Carroll, a Hollywood pitchman searching for his next big hit reality show. They must confront the growing terror surrounding Desper Hollow head-on. Meanwhile, one of the undead, Armistead, begins to fight against the fog of his ghastly condition to uncover the truth about himself. With Jenkie's experiments worsening the situation, a stash of the living dead is locked up in the back of her trailer, and the howling herd grows more menacing by the day. Desper Hollow is a story of survival and self-discovery, as Armistead struggles to find his place in a world where he no longer fits in with the living.
