Synopsis

High school students in a small Swedish town confront a supernatural force that feeds on chaos and human misery. The series begins with the sudden, unexplained death of a student, leading the group to uncover dark secrets linked to their community's past. As they delve deeper, they must face their deepest fears to survive the malevolent entity threatening their lives.

"Cryptid is in good shape and bad form with its use of practical effects, hypnotic cinematography and editing, ominous storytelling, and pitch perfect acting. Much like Dark or Stranger Things or It, there’s an undercurrent of anxiety that the elders are witnessing something they’ve seen before and are trying to brush it under the rug to avoid accepting that what’s happening is real."
