It's 1984, and Daniel Knox is on the run. He's spent his entire life evading mysterious creatures that are disguised as everyday people - the ones he calls 'Shadows'. Preying on humans in secret, the Shadows are an enigma even to Daniel. But he knows one thing for sure - the Shadows' true nature can't be seen by anyone but him. As he seeks refuge in a remote mountain community, Daniel crosses paths with a traveller who is investigating the disappearance of her sister in the same town. Gradually, the secrets begin to unravel - and for Daniel - life will never be the same again. 'The Road of Shadows' is a Beyond the Dark production. Created by Mark R. Healy. Hosted on Acast.

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Very entertaining and slow but the character build up has you rooting more and more for the young warriors. You just can’t get enough

T Rodzz · Jun 2026

I’ve finished 3 seasons in 4 days.. amazing cast and the audio quality with voice acting and background audio pulls you right in to the universe. I can’t wait for more!

Ctrl6ix · Aug 2025

I thought after the first 5 minutes that I wouldn't like this show. But I gave it a chance, finished the first episode and then listened to the 2nd episode. Then the third. And then I was hooked. I've just finished season 1 and looking forward to binging season 2. Try it. I think you'll like it.
