Season 4 Recap

Speaker 00:00

[suspenseful music] Welcome to the recap for The Road of Shadows, season four. This is a short summary of events that occurred in the previous season. Daniel returns to the town of Oakwood after many years and recalls a traumatic past encounter with a shadow named Jeffrey Lee, who once threatened his life. Late at night, he and Amber encounter Jeff, and Daniel strikes him down. But strangely, Jeff lies bleeding in the alley, rather than disintegrating as previous shadows have done at the touch of Daniel's ax. Concerned and confused, they leave the scene and return the next morning, only to find that Jeff's body is missing. Soon after, Daniel and Amber are confronted by Vicky, who claims to be Jeff's sister. She has been informed that Jeff may have returned to town after a long absence. When they return to their lodgings, Daniel and Amber receive a phone call from a man named Roderick, who informs them that he is not only the author of the compendium, but a fellow Nostrama. He also tells them that Jeff was a Hollowskin, an entity that exists halfway between the human world and the world of the shadows. Once, Jeff had been human, but was later corrupted by a shadow and turned into a puppet. Roderick advises that the Nostrama should leave town, since the Oakwood shadow is especially dangerous. Daniel and Amber refuse and decide to try tracking down the shadow themselves. They learn of a young woman named Christina who went missing several years ago. After visiting Christina's mother, Grace, they gather some clues and manage to stumble across Christina on the edge of town. Amber is confused by Christina's appearance and becomes adamant that it is, in fact, her missing sister, Jenny. After more research, Daniel and Amber team up with Roderick
