The main characters of the Lovecraft Country find themselves separated and trapped, and the dark magic is forcing them to confront their worst fears. While a resilient group endures both the monstrous horrors of Ardham, Massachusetts, and the systematic racism rampant in the 1950s America, Atticus Freeman, along with his friends, are not without their own deep-settled fears.

The respective anxieties of Atticus Freeman, George, his uncle, and Letitia Lewis, their friend, were made real in the last episode of the Lovecraft Country. It was the time when the trio is held captive visibly, shaking them to their core by the sinister sons of Adam. After hardly surviving a night, filled with the hungry vampires and racist sheriffs in the New England woods, Atticus and his friends were welcomed in a palatial estate. The palatial state is the last known location of the missing father of Atticus, Montrose Freeman.

George and Latitia quickly settled into their new digs. At the same time, Atticus remained wary of the most mysterious group running the state, with the former finding a wardrobe fully tailored to her size, while the latter marveled over the bookcases stocked with his favorite texts. Soon Atticus realizes the fact that this is all nothing but a trap, and to trap them, Atticus’ father, Montrose Freeman, has been used as a bait.

He learns that the organization that is running the mansion is a religious cult, and they are known as the sons of Adam. They make use of dark magic to keep George and Letitia docile while they prepared Atticus for a ritual that is related to his bloodline. While the daughter of Samuel Braithwaite, the leader of the cult, Christina Braithwaite, agrees to remove the spells that were inhibiting the memories of George and Letitia and cognition, all the three are confined to their bedrooms as the preparation for the ritual continues.
While one of the spells has been lifted from the captive guests, they discover soon that they have been subjected to an even more insidious form of the dark magic.
