Once upon a time...
A young woman runs through a snowy wasteland, fearing for her life, only to find help from an unexpected source...

A whole town falls asleep, resulting in a joint US/UK military and scientific expedition to find out what happened...

A serial killer with a penchant for severed feet strikes again...

A teenage girl seeks refuge in a strange house, only for its owners to return...

A man wins at cards, then is made an offer he can't refuse...
