3. Flesh by Tom Morton-Smith

Episode 3 of 5

There's a virus sweeping town, striking teenagers the most. Why? Stars Lindsey Coulson with Mark Gatiss as the raconteur.

Mattie couldn't stop her wayward son Jamie from going out, but now he's come home bleeding and feverish.

A virus is sweeping town and the death toll among teenagers is rising. What's worse - they're not staying dead, and they've developed a taste for human flesh.

With Jamie sickening upstairs and her new boyfriend fighting his way across town to be with her, Mattie is soon going to face a terrible choice...

Tom Morton-Smith's chilling tale is introduced by Mark Gatiss as sinister raconteur, The Man in Black.

Horrifying series of tales from The Man in Black. You might meet him at a luggage carousel in an airport, or behind the desk at an employment agency or he might approach you in the corridor of a care home.

Wherever you encounter him, he's eager to pass on his stories. Stories to unsettle and horrify. Stories to haunt you.
