In the city of angels, monsters roam the streets This story follows the lives of Diego, Amina, and Mia, three teens who are part cryptid and part paranormal hunters. After meeting online, they bond over their shared ability to shift into cryptid forms and their mission to protect humanity from dangerous creatures lurking in the dark. However, things take an unexpected turn when they discover they're all enrolled in the same high school in Los Angeles. As they navigate the complexities of teenage life-classes, friendships, and the constant risk of exposing their identities-they also uncover a growing threat in the city. Along the way, they meet Rafael, a mysterious cryptid with a dangerous past. Though initially an outsider and a potential threat, Rafael becomes entangled in their group, especially with Diego, who starts to form a complicated bond with him. Together, the four must battle monstrous creatures while uncovering secrets about themselves and each other. As their bonds deepen, so do the stakes, forcing them to face not only the creatures that haunt the streets of LA but also their own fears, desires, and inner demons. With heart-pounding action, cryptid mythology, and slow-burn romance "Into the Shadows" explores the fragility of trust, the power of found family, and the resilience required to survive in a world where the monsters outside aren't the only ones to fear.
