Boys from County Hell
A crew of hardy road workers, led by a bickering father and son, must survive the night when they accidentally awaken an ancient Irish vampire.
Welcome to Six Mile Hill, a sleepy Irish backwater whose only claim to fame is the somewhat dubious local legend that Bram Stoker once spent a night in the local pub. It’s home to Eugene Moffat, a young man who fills most of his days drinking pints with his friends and pranking tourists who come to visit the gravesite of Abhartach, a legendary Irish vampire many believe to have been the inspiration for Dracula.
When a personal tragedy forces Eugene to go and work for his gruff, no-nonsense father, he finds himself on the site of a controversial new road development that threatens to destroy the town’s livelihood.
But strange events unfold when Eugene and the crew tear down a famous cairn believed to be the final resting place of Abhartach. They soon come under attack from a sinister force that has infected one of their workmates.
As the night closes in, the boys must fight for survival while discovering the true horror of a myth that hits much closer to home than any of them realise.
