If I'm right, Wolf is referring to the film The Dark is Rising, based on the exceptional book by Susun Cooper.
I daren't watch the film as the book is complex, disturbing and wide-ranging. Or at least it was when I read it (nearly two years younger than the main protagonist, Will) and I've not shaken the thrill of it since.

I still know the second prophecy by heart. Well, when I'm sober. I usually only try to share it with other people when I'm drunk and get stuck halfway through.
