Project Overview

One strange and dark year ago, Halloween came early. It came on Oct. 24, three hours after midnight. The exact same time that Cooper and Dark's Pandemonium Shadow show rolled into town. A classic tale of good and evil, perfectly capturing the wonder of youthland Octobers of skies orange and ash gray at twilight.
