Amara's family has been living in the graveyard for generations. Their duty is to take care of the resting place of the departed, and allow them to be comfortable before transitioning into the
Afterlife. What Amara doesn't know is that her family is also supposed to be keeping in check with the Afterlife, an entity existing to guide the souls of the deceased into their next lives. 

More and more souls are being sent into the afterlife as a worldwide disease looms over the planet. After Amara's father had not survived the fatal blow of the virus, her mother follows along. Her mother's last words were about feeling her father's presence restless and so, she asked Amara her last dying wish to bring back the Afterlife as they had gone M.I.A. 

Amara, seemingly overwhelmed and determined with all the information, seeks out to find the Afterlife and steer them back into guiding souls in order to put her family to rest.

25 parts Complete
In the remote village of Hollow Creek, nestled deep within the misty confines of an ancient forest, strange occurrences disturb the lives of its inhabitants. Legends say that the village is cursed, haunted by vengeful spirits bound to the land since the tragic events of a forgotten past. The story follows Lily Dawson, a young journalist with a knack for the supernatural, who arrives in Hollow Creek to investigate these eerie tales for her latest article. Upon her arrival, Lily is welcomed by the cold stares and cryptic warnings of the villagers. She dismisses their superstitions, driven by her ambition to uncover the truth. However, as night falls, she begins to hear chilling whispers echoing through the tree line outside her window, coaxing her to uncover secrets buried long ago. Determined to find the source of these whispers, Lily teams up with an enigmatic local historian, Ethan, who believes that unlocking the past is the only way to quell the unrest. Together, they delve into the village's history, uncovering stories of a massacre that took place centuries ago during a ritual gone wrong. Each revelation brings them closer to the heart of the curse and the spirits trapped within. Amidst mounting fear and escalating supernatural occurrences, Lily and Ethan realize they must perform a dangerous ritual to appease the spirits and lift the curse. As they race against time, they battle both the sinister forces of the supernatural and the skepticism of the villagers who are unwilling to confront their past. In a spine-chilling climax set during a storm-laden night, Lily must face the ultimate test of courage and faith, as the boundary between the living and the dead blurs, threatening to engulf the village in shadow forever. It's a harrowing tale of uncovering darkness, confronting fears, and the unrelenting whisper of unseen forces that haunt the haunted.
