00:03 Hi, I'm Sharonda Williams,
00:12 and I am here to tell you
00:14 about the Prime Video Original Series, "Shelter,"
00:16 and help you meet the characters.
00:18 Based on Harlan Coben's gripping series,
00:25 "Shelter" follows the story of Mickey Boletar,
00:27 who after the sudden death of his father,
00:29 leads him to start a new life in Castleton, New Jersey.
00:33 Mickey quickly finds himself tangled
00:34 in the mysterious disappearance
00:36 of a new student at his school, Ashley Kent,
00:39 which leads to uncovering unimaginable secrets
00:42 within their quiet suburban community.
00:44 With the help of his friends,
00:46 the inventive Spoon and secretive Ema,
00:49 Mickey pulls back the sleepy facade of Castleton
00:52 to reveal a dark underground
00:54 that may hold the answers to decades of disappearances,
00:57 deaths, and legends,
00:59 and perhaps even Mickey's own complex family history.
01:02 Every small town has an urban legend.
01:05 In Castleton, New Jersey,
01:06 that urban legend is the Bat Lady.
01:08 Everyone in town has heard the stories of kids
01:11 who dare to enter her creepy, abandoned house
01:14 and don't come out.
01:16 Some people say she's real.
01:17 Others believe she's just a myth.
01:19 That is, until she appears
01:21 in front of our lead character, Mickey,
01:23 to deliver a life-changing message.
01:25 Mickey Boletar is our lead character
01:28 and a young teenager who is grappling
01:29 with the sudden loss of his father.
01:31 Mickey is a jack of all trade.
01:33 He's excellent at basketball.
01:35 He's fluent in Spanish,
01:36 but his biggest priority has always been his family.
01:39 He is incredibly brave, which comes in handy
01:42 as he suddenly finds himself
01:43 at the center of mysterious disappearances
01:46 happening in his town.
01:47 Mickey will do anything to find the answers
01:50 that can help him unveil the truth
01:51 about his family and town's past.
01:53 As he seeks to find the truth,
01:55 Mickey learns that his family has many secrets to hide.
01:58 Shira Boletar is the aunt of Mickey Boletar
02:00 and she is one tough cookie.
02:02 She is a lawyer by profession
02:04 and will do anything to protect her family.
02:06 She is currently her nephew's guardian
02:08 and is taking time away from her job
02:10 to make sure Mickey is okay after a family tragedy.
02:13 Shira is strong, very smart,
02:15 and can talk her way out of any situation.
02:18 As Mickey delves deeper into the town mystery,
02:21 he learns more about his aunt
02:22 and their family in the process.
02:25 Arthur "Spoon" Spindell is intelligent,
02:27 quirky, and very kind,
02:28 which serves him well as a proud member
02:30 of Castleton High's welcoming committee.
02:33 After a troubling incident at school,
02:35 Mickey and Spoon become fast friends
02:37 with Emo joining shortly after,
02:39 completing our core trio.
02:41 Spoon is not only well-connected,
02:43 he can also hack into any system,
02:45 making him an incredibly useful ally
02:47 as our trio works to uncover the town's mystery.
02:50 And don't let the glasses
02:51 and the utensil accessory fool you.
02:53 Spoon will stand up for his friends
02:55 and anyone else who isn't being treated fairly,
02:57 whether that means facing the school bully
02:59 or the Bat Lady herself.
03:01 Emo is the tough, sarcastic,
03:03 and incredibly loyal friend to Mickey and Spoon,
03:05 willing to take on any bully that comes her way.
03:08 Despite her tattoos and outsider status,
03:10 Emo finds herself showcasing a few hidden talents
03:13 and may even find love
03:14 in the Castleton High halls this year.
03:17 But in the process of solving the town's mystery,
03:19 we learn that talent may not be the only thing
03:22 Emo has been keeping hidden.
03:23 As captain of the cheerleading squad
03:26 and girlfriend to the school's basketball team captain,
03:28 it will appear Rachel Caldwell has it all.
03:30 But beneath the surface,
03:32 Rachel is harboring a dark secret
03:33 that can end up putting herself
03:35 and her loved ones in danger.
03:37 Troy is the captain of the basketball team
03:39 and a rising star on campus.
03:41 That is, until Mickey Boletar steps into the picture.
03:44 But the trouble Troy is facing on the court
03:46 pales in comparison to what's going on at home.
03:49 Being the sheriff's son
03:50 can come with a lot of responsibility
03:52 and occasionally with a few of the town's darkest secrets.
03:55 Thanks for watching this "Shelter" edition
03:57 of "Meet the Characters" video.
03:59 The mystery begins when "Shelter" premieres
04:00 on August 18th, only on Prime Video.
