The premise
In a seemingly perfect retirement community, a crew of unlikely heroes must stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don't have: time.
Horror Vault's take
Beneath the manicured lawns and quiet routines of what appears to be an idyllic retirement community, something deeply wrong is taking root. A group of residents — easy to overlook, impossible to underestimate — begin to sense that the threat closing in on them is not of this world. Whatever has come to The Boroughs wants something uniquely precious from its aging population, and it won't stop until it has taken everything. This ensemble-driven series blends creeping dread with sharp character work, anchored by a standout cast of seasoned performers.
