Longest Night is a PSL wherein characters are drawn into the world of Rise of the Guardians and changed into myths. After Pitch Black tried to open an ancient magical door, fabled to contain a magical army of creatures called fearlings that Pitch thought he could control, a primordial being of darkness named Kuk was unleashed on the world. Now that the door is open a crack, Kuk seeks to open it all the way and bring darkness into the world, using it as a stepping stone to eventually destroy all other realities. His army of fearlings is going out into the world wreaking havoc and killing adults who can't even see the threat, as well as turning children into more fearlings.
The good myths of the world, such as most of the Guardians, have been captured and held in stasis in magical crystal in Kuk's stronghold just outside the magical door. Kuk feeds off the belief the people in the world have in them to get more powerful. The only myths that remain free are three of the Guardians, Jack Frost, Tooth, and Bunnymund, and many neutral/chaotic or evil myths.
Kuk's influence on the world means reality has become thin, making fear and other forms of belief more powerful. This is manifesting as beings being brought into being because of belief and fictional characters being drawn from worlds where they're real. This means the children are accidentally bringing in characters they fear - who sometimes ally with Kuk or Pitch or act as their own individual evil.
On the flip side, this also means their subconscious minds are pulling in good characters who make them feel safe or that they identify with, ie the characters being brought into the PSL.
