Welcome to Veritas. A city of hidden terrors long forgotten by the modern world of 1931. And some things in the shadows are best left forgotten…
SHADOW BOUND follows famed pulp horror writer, Jack Pickman, as he returns to his childhood home after the mysterious death of his estranged father. Jack begins investigating and discovers evidence that his father’s last case may have led to his untimely death. Along with his newfound allies, Jack finds himself in a desperate race to save the world from an ancient evil that has emerged from the shadows.
SHADOW BOUND is a black-and-white silent horror web series (2014) & film (2024), inspired by the collected works of H. P. Lovecraft.
