Emma and the Banderwigh

Ten-year-old Emma, living in a quiet village bordering Widowswood, dismisses faerie tales and monsters as mere childhood fantasies—until she encounters a weary girl from the woods, spreading rumors of a child-stealing creature. As the town buzzes with fear, her grandmother recounts the legend of the Banderwigh, a dark entity that thrives on sorrow. As shadows encroach on her once-happy home, Emma must confront her disbelief and discover the strength within to protect her family from the growing darkness.
