In the isolated, haunted town of Statesville, NC, Dexter Morrow is forced to confront a dark past he's tried desperately to forget. When Lily Carver, a girl he believed lost years ago, emerges from the woods covered in blood and fear, Dexter's world fractures. He soon realizes the town itself is infected by an ancient supernatural force-the Root-which feeds on memory, grief, and forgotten pain. As Statesville's residents succumb, transforming into living vessels of remembrance, Dexter, Lily, and Deputy Clara Briggs must unravel the town's hidden history tied to Dexter's own lineage. But as they fight to contain the Root, a violent opposition-the Ashers-arises, determined to erase the truth with fire and silence. The conflict escalates into a war between memory and forgetting, culminating in a final battle beneath a veil separating reality from nightmare. Dexter faces a choice: embrace his destiny as the Root's chosen vessel or sacrifice everything to save humanity from a fate consumed by grief. Ultimately, Beneath the Red Veil is a gripping psychological horror-thriller about the power of memory, the pain of loss, and the human struggle between the need to remember and the temptation to forget.
