Summary

Armitage, Rice, and Morgan rushed over to Dunwich (where the police were waiting) and arrived in the afternoon. They noticed a trail of destruction and prints leading all the way to Sentinel Hill. Armitage rehearsed a spell and Morgan uncased a firearm. At night, the hills rumbled and the whippoorwills called.

That morning, the Horror began to move, this was unusual as it generally only moved at night. Apparently the creature had set a course to Sentinel hill, and in the process, destroyed Seth Bishop's home. Armitage told the other professors that they had to follow the being.
