Lost Girl follows supernatural seductress Bo (Anna Silk) a Succubus who feeds on the sexual energy (sometimes called “Chi”) of humans. Growing up with human parents, she has no reason to believe she’s anything other than the girl next door – until she drains her boyfriend to death in their first sexual encounter. Once she hits the road, Bo discovers she is one of the Fae, creatures of legend and folklore, who pass as humans while feeding off them secretly, as they have for millennia.
