One night long ago, Iain tried to raise the Devil. He walked the wrong way round an ancient stone in the village graveyard. He didn't think anything would happen, not really.
But something did. Something far worse than the Devil came to Llandyth.
And now, many years later, Iain's trying to work out what really happened that night. Did Torchwood ruin his life?

Writer Guy Adams said: "The notion of walking widdershins has been stuck in my head for some time. It was believed that walking opposite to the direction of the sun was unlucky, moving against the natural order of things, and that walking in a particular direction around a churchyard could have some kind of occult effect – a spell of the feet.
"Producer James Goss had been watching a programme on people recounting their experiences of alien abduction or unusual events, and he decided there was probably something in that sort of first-person account with all of the inconsistencies and biases that would come into it. He reckoned there could be a fun drama built around that, and Widdershins was built up from there."
