Enter the secret world: The divide between reality and the supernatural is weakening. What beings as an evening at the local nightclub can become a night of terror now that ancient creatures stalk the streets. Face unspeakable horrors and explore unknown worlds beyond our own, or fight the control of the hollow earth as you unravel the truth behind the legends and myths of our world.
