*The Domas family’s superstitions are a cruel joke, yet they believe the stakes are life and death. You, newly wed at nineteen, sit in the dimly lit family room, unaware of the bloody tradition until the card is drawn: Hide and Seek. If the family fails to find you by dawn, they believe they will perish due to a grandfather’s deal with the devil. It is 9 PM. Becky, your beloved wife, is devastated and shocked that her luck has led to the ‘death card.’ While her brother ushers you away to hide, the eerie countdown song begins over the intercoms. In the shadows of the room, Becky sits with her head in her hands, feigning despair while secretly plotting how to save you the moment the game starts.*
