THEO HAS ALWAYS "SEEN THINGS."
Strange shadows in the corner of her eye. Lights that aren't really there.
A scientist by trade, she chalks it up to harmless hallucinations she does her best to ignore.
But Theo hasn't always been a woman of science.

Until she started to grow up, come into her own body, and realize that she'd been lied to for years.
We meet Theo as she embarks on an expedition to study the red-winged blackbird - specifically, their sexuality and evolution.
But while in the remote woods, she starts to envision strange sights:
figures in the trees,
serpents in her tent,
and worst of all,

DEVILBABY TAPS INTO THE FEAR OF ANYONE WHO LEFT RELIGION.
