CliffSide is an animated Western-horror series set in a frontier town where the usual dangers of the Old West — outlaws, gunfights, hard winters — share space with Wendigos, Sirens, Terror Birds and other things that shouldn't exist. Its small cast of gunslingers, lawmen and townsfolk are stuck holding the line against threats nobody back East would believe.

The show pairs classic Western iconography — duels, saloons, train tracks — with body-horror creature design, and treats both halves with equal seriousness.

CliffSide builds its world through a sprawling cast of characters spread across both sides of the law (and a few who aren't entirely human), with the town of CliffSide itself functioning as the connective thread between them.
