In the barren expanse of Truth or Consequences, where the horizon stretches like an endless canvas of desolation, a spectral awakening unfolds. Honthas emerge from a century-long slumber with an appetite for blood. Bud, a man marked by the cruel hand of fate, seeks refuge from the haunting echoes of his past, stained with the violent memory of a love lost. His path converges with the gritty saga of a murder, a trigger pulled in haste at the entrance of a dive bar. United by circumstance, a fellowship emerges from the ashes - a tribe of indigenous survivors bound by a collective quest for survival. They grapple with the cryptic origins of the honthas, seeking wisdom from their elders. In the American Southwest, where the arid winds whisper secrets and the land itself bears witness to untold tragedies, Bud and his newfound companions navigate the treacherous terrain of both the supernatural and the human soul. The journey becomes a harrowing dance between bloodlust and resilience, where the threads of fate are woven with the rugged strands of survival, friendship, and the eternal ache of grief.
