NEW STORY ARC

"ORIGINAL SINS," Part One
After the mind-blowing events of the first arc, Norton digs deeper into the mystery of the Black Barn, and secrets of his past begin to come to light. Meanwhile, Father Fred does some digging of his own and learns the hard way that some secrets should just stay buried.

Picked up for TV by Hivemind after a multi-studio bidding war. Established in 2018, Hivemind is the new production entity from long-time producing partners Sean Daniel and Jason Brown, Bad Robot veteran Kathy Lingg, and former Valiant Entertainment CEO & Chief Creative Officer Dinesh Shamdasani.

    Gideon Falls is a stunning supernatural tale that offers a reading experience that is both haunting and immersive. Now in it's second arc, it is clear that the series will continue to impress. Gideon Falls #7 may not be an accessible jumping-on point, but does have the potential to generate the interest necessary to inspire new readers backtrack and get themselves up to speed.
