Sanctuary is a Canadian science fiction-fantasy television series created by Damian Kindler. It premiered on Syfy on October 3, 2008. Kindler originally created Sanctuary as an eight-part web series, but later it was adapted for television. The series is set in the fictional city of Old City and follows 157-year-old scientist, Helen Magnus, and her team: daughter Ashley, protege Will Zimmerman, Henry Foss, and an aptly named "Bigfoot".
