Gray and Lover The Hearth Tales Incident

People fear demons, demons fear Gray and Lover who confront a vengeful spirit unleashed by dark magic, embarking on a supernatural adventure across Seattle to save a writer from his murderous wife's occult machinations. FOUR screenplay awards. "Gray and Lover: The Hearth Tales Incident" begins with the death of Saleel, an Afghan veteran who, before dying, sends a sinister occult book to his friend Bryce in Seattle. Unbeknownst to Bryce, using the book unleashes a vengeful demon, setting off a series of supernatural events. Meanwhile, in Seattle, Gray and Lover, a steampunk duo skilled in hunting demons, enjoy a night at a subculture bar before being tasked with a new assignment: protecting Bryce, a writer plagued by personal and supernatural troubles. Bryce, accompanied by his assistant Eva, arrives in Seattle for business events, unaware that his estranged wife Dawn has conspired with a voodoo priest to use the occult book against him. As Bryce reconnects with his old friend Frank, also a renowned horror writer, they share haunting tales by the fireside, unaware that the demon draws closer with each story told. The tension mounts as Bryce and Frank's attempts to thwart the demon's advances culminate in a dramatic showdown, where Gray and Lover intervene at the eleventh hour. Despite their efforts, the spell to defeat the demon backfires, sending Dawn and the demon into a parallel demonic realm. With Bryce liberated from his malevolent wife, he finds solace in Eva, his loyal assistant. Meanwhile, Gray and Lover, aided by a mysterious priest, prepare for their next mission, realizing that the occult book and its dark powers are linked to a larger, ominous threat that spans across cultures and religions. "Gray and Lover: The Hearth Tales Incident" sets the stage for a franchise exploring the depths of supernatural warfare and mystical intrigue, promising future adventures as Gray and Lover traverse global landscapes to confront demonic forces and protect humanity from ancient evils tied to the mysterious book.
