A bitter crackle of static ruptures the darkness, followed by the sickly green glow of a CRT screen. A degraded government advisory tape judders into view, its narrator's voice stretched and frayed. It catalogues a string of disappearances and violent incidents originating in 1984, attributed to entities of unnatural proportion. The image splits: on the left, a man in a dated photograph; on the right, the same man rendered into a nightmare of elongated joints and a face stretched into a silent scream. The broadcast insists on sealed windows, locked doors, and the imperative of sleep before the signal cuts out entirely, abandoning you to a thick, listening quiet.
