The Guardian's Gift

There are creatures lurking in our world. Obscure creatures long relegated to myth and legend. They have been sighted by a lucky-or unlucky-few, some have even been photographed, but their existence remains unproven and unrecognized by the scientific community.

These creatures, long thought gone, have somehow survived; creatures from our nightmares haunting the dark places. They swim in our lakes and bays, they soar the night skies, they hunt in the woods. Some are from our past, some from other worlds, and others have always been with us-watching us, fearing us, hunting us.

These are the cryptids, and Systema Paradoxa tells their tales.

A VW Bus. College film students out to shoot an assignment. No adult supervision in sight. What could go wrong?

When their original proposal-a documentary about the Kecksburg UFO-turns out to be a bust, no one could have guessed that a new topic would land right in their laps... and disappear just as quickly to wing across the sky. But not before one of the students captured the wonder on film!

Will this new sensation be enough to save their project (and their grades?) Or will they find themselves too busy trying to save their skins?
