00:00Sometimes, the scariest things aren't hidden in the shadows of the web, but in the silence
00:05that follows when a friend simply disappears.
00:08It all started one autumn evening in Prague, when the cold air outside my apartment felt
00:13heavier than usual and my phone wouldn't stop vibrating with missed calls from Adrian,
00:18my oldest friend from university.
00:20We'd known each other for nearly seven years, the kind of friendship that survived distance,
00:25broken relationships, and time itself.
00:27But that week, he had been behaving strangely, obsessed with something he had found deep
00:32online, something he called the real face of the red rooms.
00:37Adrian was a cybersecurity analyst, one of those quiet geniuses who never slept, who
00:42believed every lock had a key and every secret had a crack in it.
00:45He told me in a trembling voice over a call that he'd been invited to a private stream
00:49that wasn't on any public link, hidden behind layers of encryption, accessible only through
00:55a specific set of coordinates on the Onion network.
00:58He laughed nervously when he said it wasn't one of those fake red room myths meant to scare
01:02teenagers.
01:03He claimed this one was verified through live relay servers and had an authentic trace signature,
01:09something that couldn't be fabricated.
01:10I told him he was losing his mind.
01:13He didn't respond.
01:14The next day, he was gone.
01:16His landlord said his apartment door was locked from the inside.
01:19Lights on, laptop open, chair toppled over, and a faint smell of burnt plastic in the air.
01:27No sign of forced entry.
01:29No footprints.
01:30No Adrian.
01:31I flew from London to Prague the next morning because something about that story didn't
01:35feel like the police's usual voluntary disappearance nonsense.
01:39His laptop had been confiscated, but I still had his old backup drive that he used to sync
01:44between work.
01:45I connected it to my own computer, and buried within layers of encrypted folders was one
01:50single video file, live underscore room underscore 17, timestamped just a day before he vanished.
01:57When I clicked play, my hands went cold.
01:59It wasn't a horror video or gore clip, just a single camera feed of a dimly lit concrete
02:04room with a metal table, a single light bulb swaying above, and a masked figure sitting across
02:10the camera.
02:11On the wall behind him was a clock ticking in real time.
02:15Then the chat panel appeared on the side, full of users bidding anonymously, using currencies
02:21I'd never even heard of.
02:22The masked man said,
02:24Session begins in ten minutes.
02:27Subject still being transported.
