Welcome back to Geekz 31 Days of Horror! Tonight, we travel to the eerie shores of Summerisle to uncover the haunting mystery of The Wicker Man (1973) — one of the most influential and chilling folk horror films ever made. When Sergeant Howie (Edward Woodward) arrives on a remote Scottish island to investigate the disappearance of a young girl, he finds a community deeply devoted to pagan rituals and ancient fertility traditions.
