About this episode

After miners uncover a mysterious barricade deep underground, Professor Greg Darwin is called in to investigate strange symbols and growing rumors of creatures lurking beneath the tunnels. But when the excavation team becomes trapped inside an ancient cave system, the stories quickly prove terrifyingly real. Hunted through darkness by savage one-eyed predators while deadly traps close in around them, the survivors must navigate a labyrinth designed to keep something imprisoned below the earth. A tense and action-packed tale of subterranean horror and survival, this story explores the terrifying consequences of uncovering what was meant to remain buried forever.
