A team of content creators who cover cryptids on social media receive the tip of a lifetime, a photo of a monstrous giant on a suburban street at night. It appears real, so they travel to the neighborhood where the photo was taken. The team quickly finds out there’s far more than just the giant. Deformed animals stalk the neighborhood, while the residents of the street all appear to be unstable or in the throes of madness. An abandoned junkyard nearby has an infamous history. Learn the meaning of Darkfield as the team finds far more than just a story, but a nightmare waiting to consume them all.

A team from the Royal Jaune Records label arrives in Bon Marais, Louisiana, in June of 1956. They are in search of the original lyrics to the popular folk song “Cotton-Eyed Joe.” The family of local folk legend Rory Welch claims to have those lyrics and have promised to release them…for a sizeable sum, of course. But dark and terrible things lurk in the Louisiana swamps, and the team find themselves getting more than what they bargained for in this lyrical deal.
