  It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in a small town. Now, they're on the run from religious fanatics. 
  When five friends are invited to a religious celebration in a small, isolated town, they are initially showered by the townsfolk with gifts and attention. As the days go by, however, it becomes clear that the community is not as innocuous as it initially presented itself. Mysterious, robed figures violently beat people who express different opinions, strange rituals take place in the church at night, and armed gunmen patrol the town perimeters – all under Prophet Martin’s orders. 
  What was supposed to be a relaxing trip for the outsiders turns into a struggle for survival, with the entire town zealously following Prophet Martin’s command – to find and kill the sinners.

  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. 
  "The Unnamable" is a horror short story by American author H. P. Lovecraft. It was written in September 1923, first published in the July 1925 issue of Weird Tales, and first collected in Beyond the Wall of Sleep in 1943. 
  Carter, a weird fiction writer (likely Randolph Carter who features in some of Lovecraft's other tales such as "The Statement of Randolph Carter") meets with his close friend, Joel Manton, in a cemetery near an old, dilapidated house on Meadow Hill in the town of Arkham, Massachusetts. As the two sit upon a weathered tomb, Carter tells Manton the tale of an indescribable entity that allegedly haunts the house and surrounding area. He contends that because such an entity cannot be perceived by the five senses, it becomes impossible to quantify and accurately describe, thus earning itself the term unnamable. 
  As the narration closes, this unnamable presence attacks both Carter and Manton. Both men survive and awaken later at St. Mary's hospital. They suffer from various lacerations, including scarring from a large horn-shaped object and bruises in the shape of hoof-prints on their backs.
