Harvest Home

The old New England village of Cornwall Coombe appears to outsiders like Ned, his wife Beth and their daughter Kate as a throwback to simpler times. The first time the family sees the village across a quaint covered bridge the sun is shining upon it out of dark rain clouds with a rainbow as a backdrop. Beth says it reminds her of a Currier & Ives print. When the family is allowed to purchase and upgrade a 300 year old house in the village, Ned, the narrator of the tale, and his family think they have truly found the country life many city folk can only dream about. But with the work on the house complete in the Fall of the year and corn fields soon to be harvested, Ned, who is now a full time artistic painter, slowly finds his dream turning into a nightmare as he investigates the dark underpinnings of the village. While the people of the village appear to accept and befriend Ned and his family, as the Fall progresses through it's marked main events of Agnes Fair, The Days of the Season, Tithing Day, The Corn Play and heading toward final Harvest Home, Ned is subtly being corrupted and his family drawn away into the true matriarchal pagan ritualism of the village. Real horror awaits Ned during Cornwall Coombe's Harvest Home.
