Description

Deep in the lush, Louisiana forest, beyond the streets of Lafayette and beyond the imaginations of most locals, lived someone or something as ancient as evil. She had only been a “folktale” or “legend” as many had labeled her, until she decided to make herself known. Cecil thought that life was normal. Normal as it could be for an ER doctor until one night he discovered something in the stomach of a dead patient. Something both awful and unexplainable. Something that would lead him on a trail of horror and mystery and right into the depths of evil itself. A trail as twisted as the tale in which it was woven. From eyewitness accounts of surviving victims, the stories of an exorcising priest friend and to the cultic circle of girls delving in the dark art. Residue is the tale of the residual effect of a curse. A sign, left behind in the victim. The all encompassing question for Cecil is, “why?” “Why was this one a victim?” The question which would soon change to “Why were these victims?” And finally, “Why is Jean-Marie after him?”
