Monster Girl-themed Magical Girl series, Action Horror, Not a Deconstruction Survivors of the living shadows transform to become their monsters. Set in New England of the late 00's, Fear is the story of a depressive, emotionally muted girl's transformation in many respects: from teen to young adult, and from hunted to hunter. Managing her curse requires her to dive into the supernatural, but at least she finds others like and unlike her along the way.  As Calypso Grimes quickly finds out, she never felt more alive. And much more emotionally available than she was human.
