Nightshade Academy: The Complete Series


It's a blizzard outside my house today which is fitting. Today Den of Demons is officially released. It's the fourth episode in Nightshade Academy, where Nova finds herself trapped inside an ice cavern with a terrifying demon and a wily witch.

The Goodest Boy – Nightshade Academy Extras
