The Pact of Shadows is a story about two strangers, Chloe and Dylan, who meet in the most unexpected way by crashing their cars into each other on a dark, empty road in San Bernardino.

They reluctantly team up to follow clues, and as they dig deeper, weird things start happening. Shadows seem to move on their own, strange people keep showing up, and creepy legends about the nearby forest feel a little too real.
          
          Their journey takes them from rundown motels to shady bars. Along the way, Chloe's sarcasm and Dylan's deadpan attitude create some much needed humor to cut through the tension. But with old secrets coming to light and sinister forces closing in, Chloe and Dylan have to face their pasts and learn to trust each other if they want to make it out alive. In this mix of suspense, dark humor, and supernatural mystery, The Pact of Shadows explores friendship, loss, and how sometimes facing the unknown means confronting your own fears.All Rights Reserved
