A psychological horror about time leaking. Dr. Ilya Voss keeps atomic clocks, until one stutters at 23:59:60 — a second that doesn’t exist. From that gap, something breathes.
Clocks start trembling only for her. Pauses stretch too long, and in the stretch her own voice replays things she hasn’t said yet. Writing appears in grout and condensation: You are not fixed. Just layered, thin, and worn.
The leaks get worse. Security cams catch her appearing in rooms she didn’t enter, and a shape made of static collapses into her outline. It learns her name to say — not quite like her, but close enough that the universe accepts it.
Vibe: House of Leaves meets The Backrooms, but the monster is a misplaced second. Time isn’t a line; it’s sediment. And sometimes a version of you from a future that never happened slips through the seams.
Core rule: Don’t turn around. Don’t try to see what stands just out of time. It’s patient. It’s only an epoch away.
