Little did she know how their union would ultimately cause her descent into insanity. Fueling her transformation into a vengeful sorceress, bent on causing bedlam and destruction.

What was it that caused Hagatha’s transformation? And would Enoch and the residents of Slaughter survive the onslaught?
