Episode 1: Hunting the Pig

A brutal discovery deep within a Colorado cave system sets the tone for the first case of V.E.I.L.
After a vicious and unexplainable murder leaves only one survivor, Agent Saunders and Agent Blaylen are reintroduced as they take on the growing legend of the Pig Man, an aberrant entity believed to stalk the dark places beneath the earth.

The agents travel to interview the sole survivor, hoping to uncover what truly happened inside the cave. But when they arrive at her home, they are met with another horrific crime scene—one that confirms their worst fears. Whatever the Pig Man is, it followed her home… and the agents quickly realize they are not alone.

The hunt begins.
