The premise
A British Army doctor comes back from a war, thinking that she has PTSD only to discover that there is a more daunting malevolence at work making the life that she knew unfamiliar.
Horror Vault's take
When a British Army doctor returns home from deployment, the familiar comfort of civilian life refuses to settle back into place — and what she first attributes to PTSD begins to feel like something far darker and more deliberate. The people and places she loves seem subtly, disturbingly wrong, as if something has crept into the spaces she left behind. Drawing on supernatural folklore alongside the very real horrors of post-war trauma, The Unfamiliar builds an escalating sense that the enemy she now faces cannot be treated or diagnosed.
