Maude
M is for magic. M is for mystery. M is for Maude.
When misfit pre-teen Maude is moved to a seaside town with her dad’s new family, she finds unwelcoming locals, vicious seagulls, and parental neglect. So far, so standard… until Maude also discovers a rag-tag group of weird friends, bizarre goings-on, strange folkloric entities, and a town even weirder than she is…
As the series progresses, Maude, and her new friends experience the trials and tribulations of growing up, coping with crazy parents and living in a town beset by mythological creatures (although none of them seem as strange as the adult world). All the while the mystery of Dampsgate and why it seems to be getting weirder deepens…
