Basically an object that does not allows any light to pass through will form a shadow. Shadows are formed by light, because if light shines onto an object, and the object blocks the light, the light will go sideways of the object, and therefore, a shadow is formed. Light can only travel in straight lines.

The light won't go sideways.The light which is blocked doesn't goes any where. It stays blocked. An object that blocks light will form a shadow.
Light emitted from a point source travels all around the point source.
Hope the diagram helps!!!
