The Gates — Season 1

The Monohan family move into their new home in The Gates, an exclusive community of perfectly manicured lawns and friendly neighbors.

Claire and Dylan Radcliff fight to hide not only their involvement in Nick's case, but their rather unusual family secret.

But the deeper Russo digs, the closer she comes to uncovering the community's dark secrets, and Nick finds he must balance the demands of the Bureau with preserving harmony within The Gates.

Meanwhile, Brett contends with the realities of a relationship with Andie, and Charlie becomes painfully aware that the people around him are... not human.

Grim secret has been buried and forgotten in the sodden banks of the river... or has she? Nick's past once again comes back to haunt him, and this time the demons are more real than he could fathom.

But Sarah is about to find out that Devon is the one person she should never have trusted. And angered that Andie and Charlie are once again an item, Brett resorts to drastic measures--ones that will have lasting consequences.

Devastated by Vanessa's death and Sarah's culpability in Buckley's suicide, the Monohans prepare to leave The Gates. But when Charlie runs away with Andie, it sets off a dangerous chain of events. Meanwhile, the Radcliffes are in hot pursuit of the elusive witch, Devon, who has the ability to destroy their entire race. Brett Crezki is also on the hunt, desperately trying to find Andie before her Succubus side emerges. As all these threads converge, it becomes clear that the one person no one can trust is the one person the Monohans need the most.
