Scratch

By Christopher Hines

A love triangle. A hidden infection. A city that doesn't know it's being hunted.

When Brooklyn Mercer cheats on her husband with a mysterious stranger in the Oregon woods, she doesn't realize she's carrying more than guilt home-she's carrying a curse. Her husband, Nathan, a respected news anchor, begins to lose time and wakes up covered in mud and blood. Each blackout brings him closer to the truth-and closer to becoming something monstrous.

As the killings rise and the full moon draws near, Brooklyn's secret affair collides with Nathan's unraveling sanity. Detective Calloway hunts the "animal attacks" tearing through Salem, but what he finds will drag the entire city into a war between predators hiding in plain sight.

SCRATCH is a visceral, cinematic horror thriller about obsession, transformation, and the line between human and monster.
Fans of The Wolf Among Us, The Invisible Man, and You will devour this slow-burn descent into madness.
