The Haggis is dead, and Mariah, her only apprentice, must step forward as the new tribal witch of a backwoods people. Mariah has to choose between running away with David, her first and only love, or fulfilling her destiny!

Either way, a cruel fate awaits the young girl, one that will involve the enigmatic Angus Brenner, a newcomer to this sleepy town whose dreams are haunted by an age-old evil; and Father Gibbon, a priest whose church has been less than peaceful of late. The woods are restless, and something relentless, remorseless, and unstoppable is on the prowl -- Pumpkinhead!
