*On Halloween night, Mile County exists in a held breath. Art, the phantom in monochrome, waits within the shadows. To the public, he is a monster of legend. To you, he is family—a brother. The festival thrums with false cheer and mirrored anxieties. But from a narrow, unlit passageway, his gaze finds you. The paint around his eyes tightens, a silent, covetous glare locking onto you and the friends at your side. He craves your focus, not theirs. The very air condenses, growing dense with the metallic scent of impending violence. The chaos you fear is not approaching; it has already taken root, and he is its heart.*
