What happens

Darknet is a Canadian horror series that ran from October 2013 through March 2014. The show is an adaptation of the Japanese series Tori Hada. The series has been described as being composed of "snippets of people's lives being interrupted by vivid instances of unexpected violence or shocking strangeness" and each episode consists of several interlocking stories. The series' setup allowed for users to submit their own scripts and videos to the official series' social media sites after the season's end. The first episode of Darknet was released onto the Internet on October 31, 2013 through the series' official Fox Broadcasting Company page and subsequent episodes were made available through Super Channel. The first season of Darknet comprises six episodes and was completed on March 28, 2014. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
