Travel Guide

Somewhere in the Black Country…

Human bones have been found at an archeological dig. Bones which bear torture marks in the middle of a remote damp field

“a part worn path continued into the field, gouged by farm vehicles entering the space”

The field is dark and the findings grim – the earth gouged out gives it a gothic and deadly feel, the remoteness of the place and the hidden horrors within – something is sticking out of the eye of the skull for example…
