Two people, despite being in different points of life, battle a shadow with different faces. Seventeen-year-old Nicolas and his mother escape his insane father's torment by moving to an apartment outside of town. When he started to suffer from hallucinations similar to his father's, he feared he'd end up exactly like his father did. His new neighbor stepped in and began shedding more light on what was really at play.

Police detective Erik pursued the head of the notorious Surkins gang that resettled in Welltown. Strange hallucinations and nightmares began plaguing him during the chase. Upon capturing the gang leader, Erik discovered that these trances are caused by whatever the Surkins worship.

Erik teams up with a crew of scientists and soldiers who came to stop this force, while Nicolas must trust his neighbor to battle it. As time passes, the events only worsen, and it became clear that this Shadow was beyond what they could understand. It threatened to kill everyone they loved and destroy all they knew.
