Pacific Dark

UceGang and Regan investigate a strange underground tunnel system beneath the West Auckland suburb of Avondale, where a group of West Auckland kids once stumbled upon something they were never meant to find. Strange objects, a terrifying discovery and whispers of a woman from another era turn an urban adventure into one of Auckland’s eeriest ghost stories.
