This is a quest exclusive to characters of dark backgrounds and shadowy powers. According to Warcraft Wiki that includes:

Undead
Void Elves
Death Knights
Demon Hunters
Warlocks
Shadow Priests

If you're not one of those the quest doesn't appear for you. If you read the quest text, the NPC is just suspicious of your dark nature so he needs additional proof that you're a good guy.

Description

Yes, you helped us out with these pests, but it is not enough. I need more. One of the areas near our town has been overrun by shadow. If you are truly not being controlled by your... strange background, you would have no problem destroying the source of this danger, would you?

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

  • Suspicious MindsHallowfall · Level 75-78

    For many years, the only non-Arathi we ever saw in Hallowfall were trying to kill us. Nerubians, shadow creatures, beasts. So, forgive me if I view your sudden arrival with suspicion. However, my better half would urge me to be more welcoming... and I want to try to be better. For her.
