Crowshed is a Webcomic by anthegran. The comic began on Feburary 5th, 2019.
Crowshed is a town in the less-populated outskirts of Canada, plagued with the criminal ghosts of the many convicts from the county prison and a self-appointed outsider curfew keeping the town in a cultural and temporal stasis. The comic follows Sheryl, the newest employee of the Crowshed Department of Paranormal Investigation, and Elba Hart, a friendly ghost-detective who employs supernatural technology to find and arrest culprits.
Crowshed is currently on a hiatus to be re-written from the beginning, but can be read here.
Crowshed contains examples of:
- Anti-Hero: Sheryl breaks into the Gravestone family house and steals their kid's blood. This happens within the first ten pages.
- Coat, Hat, Mask: Sheryl's outfit when on the job.

- Malevolent Masked Men: Lampshaded by Sheryl in one scene.Sheryl: "Turns out there is not a lot of things a masked stranger can politely ask for."Elba: "Does that surprise you?"
