Upon receiving this information, the fairy is thrown into the fireplace at his continuous pleading. Knowing this little folks play by certain rules, Hellboy heads to the crossroads at midnight falls. He met three of Gruagach's folks who gave him a deal of giving Tam O'Clannie's corpse a proper Christian burial in exchange for the kid and it should be completed before dawn.

Though, the vengeful fairy Gruagach made it hard for him to fulfill his commitment to the fairies and released a giant warthog monster Grom to take him out, the son of Demon is not intimidated at all. Two years after, in 1961, Hellboy goes to investigate another of folklore legend called the Iron Shoes in an abandoned castle of Ireland, only to find the legend to be true.

His next adventure took him to Bereznik, Russia three years after, in 1964, involving multiple cases of child abduction. This time the evidence is linked to the myth of Baba Yaga witch and the aftermath of their confrontation will leave quite a mess. His paranormal investigation continues as he goes looking for mysterious cases like A Christmas Underground, The Chained Coffin and The Wolves of Saint August.
