Evil exists. I’ve seen evil. Not your garden variety, child molester or axe murderer kind of evil. I’ve seen real evil as its jaws chewed up an infant, swallowing the large chunks whole. I watched in horror as evil ate the soul of my partner.

The nightmares are real. Darkness exists. And I and a handful of people stand in the gap, protecting humanity from an evil that they don’t even know about.

Do not pity me, I don’t deserve it. I’m the one who chose to fight. I chose to fight monsters. Do not fear me. I only hunt the monsters.

This is my story. Pray that it does not become yours.

• Journal of an unidentified Field Agent

Colorado has a vampire problem, and they don’t even know it yet. A small town in the foothills of the Rockies is under assault from a nest of vampires, and an elite secret government team is sent in to protect the town.

Knightmare is a new, elite government team tasked with controlling and eradicating monsters not of this world. Brought together from the best armed forces, federal law enforcement, and even the Vatican, their first mission should be an easy one. It is a glorified training mission to hunt a couple new vampires. What could go wrong?
