An investigation
into who the Shadow Man is and what is going on in Garrison.
It began in 1977. Three terrible things, one horrific night.
Just past the edge of the Garrison town limits, a forest fire broke out, nearly destroying the town overnight. A family discovered their infant had disappeared from her crib. And across town, a little boy collapsed on his front lawn, dead under mysterious circumstances. All of these were linked to the Shadow Man sightings that had started moments earlier. The unknown figure has continued to plague the small town to this day.
Now, Finn Mitchell, Omari Mason, and their new friend Ava Cook, are digging in to the town’s history to discover the truth about the Shadow Man.
