The story so far:
Title: Cast a Dark Shadow

Genre: Psychological Thriller

Concept: In a small town, a detective confronts a series of gruesome murders linked to an ancient artifact that grants its user the ominous power to control shadows.

Protagonists:
Leo Ramirez: A seasoned detective on the brink of retirement, haunted by a crippling fear of the dark—a phobia intensified by the tragic loss of his daughter under mysterious circumstances.

Alex Park: A young, eager member of the local law enforcement and a supernatural enthusiast. Despite never encountering the supernatural, Alex is determined to prove his worth, often employing his skills in magic tricks and sleight of hand to solve cases. His initial desire to tackle the murders solo leads to tension when Leo arrives in town.

Setting: A quaint yet eerie small town, where darkness looms both literally and figuratively.
