Peaceful Valley is about to become a slaughterhouse! For the first time ever, Samhain Publishing will serialize a terrifying original novel, Savage Species, in five installments, with new installments coming every two weeks. The construction of the Peaceful Valley Nature Preserve, a sprawling, isolated state park, has stirred an evil that has lain dormant for nearly a century, and all the men, women and children unlucky enough to be attending the grand opening are about to encounter the most horrific creatures to ever walk the earth. Part Five: The Old One The survivors attempt a desperate escape from their subterranean prison, but the Night Flyers and the Children are savage and relentless hunters. Sam, Charly, Jesse and the rest of the group will need to marshal all their courage, cunning and ferocity to save as many lives as they can. But the Old One, a monstrous creature that for millennia has reveled in sadism and the spilling of innocent blood, won't be satisfied until every last man, woman and child is dead.
