It's Robert Kirkman's new horror comic that got signed to a TV deal out the gate because Walking Dead prints money.

Quick Synopsis; a dude who's whole life has been ruined by possible mental illness/possible demonic procession of the people around him moves back to his home town and tries to figure out exactly why bad shit follows him.

It's tonally a completely different show then Walking Dead and finds its influences in the current run of American ghost horror (Conjuring, Paranormal Activity). The first episode hit that sweet spot out of the park and it's free online on youtube (and a solid mini-movie on its own).

The episodes since then have been a slow but entertaining build to the bigger mysteries. Well worth watching the first episode and sticking around
