Publication dates are subject to change (although this is an extremely uncommon occurrence overall). The Blood on Satan's Claw (or Blood on Satan's Claw) [a] is a 1971 British supernatural period folk horror film directed by Piers Haggard and starring Patrick Wymark, Linda Hayden, and Barry Andrews.

Variant prints of the film exist with both The Blood on Satan's Claw and Blood on Satan's Claw in the opening titles, which has led to the two versions being used interchangeably on DVD and Blu-ray releases. Um die charismatrische Angel Blake entsteht ein Teufelskult, dessen einziges Ziel ist, den "Meister" zu vervollständigen und auf die Erde zurückzuholen.

In a rural village in early 18th-century England, farmer Ralph Gower uncovers a deformed skull with one intact eye and strange fur. In November 2019, Severin Films followed with another limited edition Blu-ray, along with a bonus CD of the original score, limited to 3,000 units. He manages to cram a lot of intriguing detail into such a short book yet it never feels as though the reader is overloaded with information, and it always feels relevant and interesting.He tries to hack it with a knife, but when the judge bursts in, he finds that Peter has severed his own hand. Outside of his television work, he makes and sells his own darkly folkloric artwork, often lino cut and hand-printed.

The disparate stories included one involving a woman locked in an attic by her abusive aunt; a group of children who uncover a monstrous carcass in a field; and a man who cuts off his own hand, which is possessed by a demon. The next couple of sections deal with the importance of the landscape and how it is used in the film, as well as looking at nature and the way the setting juxtaposes the simple superstition of the rural setting with that of the rational, enlightened city (London). He has provided graphic props for the likes of *Poldark*, *Sherlock*, *Doctor Who*, and the recent BBC adaptation of Bram Stoker’s *Dracula*.

The children begin to act strangely, their childish games and squabbles developing a more sinister nature, a cult forming around the girl who holds a vicious claw.

The scene in which the villagers hold a funeral for Mark Vespers was shot in the village of Hurley, while portions of the woodland sequences were filmed in the Warburg Nature Reserve and Black Park near Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire. The book cover has no visible wear, and the dust jacket (if applicable) is included for hard covers.When I step back, it’s amazing how we’ve gotten to this place from the city a few years ago and from even further afield before that. Widely regarded as one of the foundational 'Unholy Trinity' of folk horror film, The Blood on Satan's Claw (1971) has been comparatively over-shadowed, if not maligned, when compared to Witchfinder General (1968) and The Wicker Man (1973).
