--general setting is an underground community of people with various supernatural ailments, some of them are known to society at large (generally the bigger pop culture ones, vampires, werewolves, zombies, things like that) but a lot are "I think I heard about that once?" or "that's not a real one is it???"
--in america, vampires are the most populous supernatural folks and sorta run the communities, it isn't uncommon to have people with absolutely no need for it trading in human blood because it's so valuable. that old thing about cigarettes in prison, but it's blood bags in the supernatural community
--curses are A Thing that varies a lot, people with more serious ones generally rely pretty hard on the larger supernatural community because people that aren't baseline human can't be cursed. vampires can't even catch most human illnesses, let alone pick up their curses! you can get cursed multiple times, though, and lycanthropy is a curse so be careful with werewolves.
--eddie himself lives with his cousin valentina who is big in the blood trade in their city, along with her girlfriend rahela, who is a waitress at a supernatural bar. his grandmother runs a little school out of her living room for supernatural/cursed kids who can't go to school so he sorta grew up knowing everybody. feel free to throw that at any of your characters, the simion family are big names in the local scene
--you can pretty much take any supernatural anything and stick it in here without going against the worldbuilding. its really only vampires and werewolves with any kind of defined lore.
