Lost in the woods and surrounded by undulating hills, there is a sleepy little hamlet whose shadowy alleys conceal a past as enigmatic as its namesake. The town of Eldridge, which seems to have stood still for centuries, is a picture of mystery and unspoken truths. This obscure town, which was once teeming with activity, is now a remnant that attests to the passage of time and the peculiar events that have been intertwined with its very being. Long-Lost Eldridge Tapestry Eldridge is cloaked in its past, a tapestry spun with threads of anomalies and abnormalities. The town has declined from its heyday and is now a shell of its former self. Cracked and weed-covered cobblestone streets wind through Eldridge's center, luring inquisitive spirits to a world where everything appears to have frozen in time. Dilapidated homes bear witness to lives lived and then forgotten, while deserted storefronts with peeling paint tell the quiet tales of companies long since gone. As people slowly left the town, the creaking of old signs and the rustle of leaves signaled the beginning of the end for the once-thriving community. A forgotten speck on a map that no one paid any attention to and even fewer people went to see, Eldridge eventually faded into oblivion. In the Past's Shadows The stones that make up Eldridge's meandering streets bear witness to the town's peculiar history, which goes far beyond becoming the stuff of urban legend. Rumors of strange occurrences that have permanently imprinted themselves on the town's collective memory float through the atmosphere.

In Widowsbury, an isolated village where people believe "known is good, new is bad," three outcasts form the girls' school join forces with a home-schooled boy to uncover and combat the evil that is making people disappear.
