As a spook, he has dedicated his life to battling malevolent forces and safeguarding the innocent from the clutches of the supernatural.

Through John Gregory’s journey, they grasp the importance of knowledge, the weight of responsibility, and the courage required to face the unknown. This Bestiary serves as both a guide and a warning, inviting readers to tread carefully in the twilight where light meets darkness.
