Description: A teenage girl goes missing on her way back from College, while crossing "the burning field" where 300 years before, members of the strange Cranford family had been burned as witches. The girl is later found, but has acquired strange new powers, something the present day members of the Cranford clan are unhappy to discover.

Another oldie from the storage boxes and this is quite apt leading up to the spooky month of October.

"Cranfords only go with Cranfords" - rather incestuous, no wonder they are weird.
