Deor
Deor is a crime thriller set in the early 90s that follows Detective Harper Aconite – a gifted, but troubled, New York City detective. After she’s put on temporary leave for abusing her authority, Rookie FBI Agent Ethan Cole gives her a chance to redeem herself. He’s been quietly investigating a case in the small town of Baxter in upstate NY and needs her help. Two young sisters Helen and Scarlet Meyer accidentally stumble upon a horrific murder scene. Only Helen never comes home.
The towns sheriff, Elroy Dalton, has a theory: A bear attacked the victim, possibly taking Helen as well. The town has a history of these types of attacks dating back to 1959. Some townies believe it’s a monster – a mythical beast that punishes the wicked.
Harper and Ethan doubt this theory, too much evidence leads to the contrary. The detectives consult Cory Wayland. A local trapper who lives with his blind mother Ruth. A trail of clues leads them to uncover a problem larger than they initially thought.
Without telling Harper, Ethan brings in the FBI to take over the case. Feeling betrayed, Harper goes on her own to interview Helen’s sister, Scarlett. The young girl opens up about what she saw that morning in the woods. Scarlet reveals it was an animal, but not just any animal – a man monster.
Harper realizes she needs Cole as much as he needs her. Combining both their recent discoveries, the two detectives move closer to an unsettling and horrific truth. A truth that digs up Harpers past.
With time running out, Harper and Ethan must work as a team to bring Helen Meyer home - shedding light on a town’s corruption, all while in the shadow of a beast, a mythical creature that haunts the town.

Welcome to Baxter, a quaint town nestled among rolling hills and framed by lush forests. Known for its stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage, Baxter is more than just a place—it's a community that feels like family.
At the heart of Baxter stands the historic Town Hall, a proud edifice built in 1856. Antique storefronts with charming facades line the streets, offering a glimpse into the past. With minimal outside influence and a distinct lack of mainstream chain stores, Baxter retains an authentic and timeless charm that captivates visitors and residents alike.
But like every town, Baxter has its shadows. Beyond the tranquil Jeminson Creek lies a dense and mysterious forest, home to a thriving population of black bears, wolves, and even the elusive bobcat. While nature's beauty is undeniable, the woods can be perilous for the unprepared.
Adding to the town's mystique is the legend of the beast. For decades, whispers of a mythical creature have drifted through the town, recounting sightings of a shadowy figure that roams the forest. Most dismiss it as a mere myth—a fanciful story to entertain and spook. However, the tale persists, woven into the fabric of Baxter's history and folklore.
Discover a place where history lives, nature thrives, and legends linger.

Town Lore
For decades the town of Baxter has been shadowed by a dark secret. A secret that helps to justify why so many people have gone missing. Why livestock have been found mutilated. To some it might sound like a ridiculous fable. But to the ones that claim to have witnessed this beast that roams the woods it is very real.
Witnesses claim that past Jeminson Creek a creature lives. Something not quite human, bear nor wolf. They say its covered in fur as thick as vines. That its victims are mauled near to death before the ground reaches up and engulfs them.
Deor... A wild animal of unknown origin.
