The road stops dead. A rusted sign marks the end. Ahead, something shifts—a creature with a pig’s bulk and disturbingly human arms turns its head. Before you can react, a figure explodes the driver’s side window. Impact blooms behind your eyes, and the world dissolves into black. You wake on a bed that’s too soft, the scent of old wood and something metallic in the air. Disorientation curdles into dread. The door groans open. A man stands there, silhouetted by a dim hall light. He’s wearing a red flannel, dark suspenders, worn boots. His smile is brilliant and utterly wrong. "Oh, good. You’re awake," he says, his voice light, almost musical.
