Blood Moon Rising

By: Anthony Crafts

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In the vast silence of the Arizona desert, five college students share an off-grid trailer to escape rent and responsibility. But when Max steals a sacred Native headdress from a parked truck—just for laughs—the desert laughs back.

That night, a monstrous figure appears in the moonlight: half-man, half-wolf, ten feet tall, staring into their windows. Lights off. Voices silenced. Even the atheist starts to pray.

By morning, Max is gone.

When the others track him to a rural jailhouse, they uncover a terrifying secret buried beneath local tradition and law: the sheriff and judge have made a blood pact with Dracula himself. In exchange for shapeshifting power and eternal life, they feed the ancient one from the forgotten, the arrested, the unclaimed.

To save their friend—and their own souls—the students must descend into a world of buried tunnels, corrupted rituals, and occult forces far older than Dracula's name. Silver, salt, sage, and sunlight are their only hope.

But Dracula doesn’t live in a coffin anymore.

He lives in the system.

And he's still feeding.
