STAG NIGHT

(A cursed bachelor party, a demon-crowned groom, and one forest where love and monstrosity grow from the same roots)

Every groom sheds his skin eventually.

When retired quarterback Rudy Callahan joins his old crew for a raucous stag weekend in Oregon’s Cascade foothills, he expects hangovers, not hell. But The Antlered Veil isn’t a lodge - it’s a trap built by a century-old cult devoted to Count Furfur, the stag-headed demon of lust and storm.

Drugged and surgically “crowned,” Rudy and his friends awaken half-human, half-beast,.prey in a ritual hunt where only one can survive as Furfur’s vessel. As antlers tear through skulls and loyalty rots into savagery, Rudy’s love for his fiancée Sallyanne becomes the last thread binding his humanity.

But when the fire dies and the ashes settle, the cult’s gospel remains: “Seventy-two crowns for the King.” Now Sallyanne hunts the survivors across America’s haunted backroads, chasing whispers of antlered gods, burned chapels, and one name carried on the wind.

A brutal, beautiful descent into body horror and devotion, Stag Night skewers toxic brotherhood, worships the grotesque, and asks the question: Can love survive when the flesh no longer remembers the man?
