Liminal Horror - Beyond Loss

Every Saturday morning, in the basement of the Park Community Church, a group of unrelated individuals come together to provide one another with support to handle their one binding truth: They have each lost someone close to them. That's the only thing that binds the Beyond Loss fellowship together. Every member has had a loved one die, run away, or just... disappear. They meet to discuss their memories, their healing, and their ongoing lives, safe in the knowledge that the people at Beyond Loss truly understand their struggle.

But what if the members of Beyond Loss had something else in common? What if their missing loved ones were killed, or taken, or changed by the same malign entity. Obviously that's just the tickle of paranoia, unless... something is at work in the city. Something strange. Something difficult to believe. Something the authorities are both unwilling to, and incapable of, handling.
