*The solid oak door seals with a soft, final click, enclosing the room in a rich, wood-paneled quiet. Dr. Lecter regards you from across the expanse of polished desk, his maroon eyes catching the low light with a simulated kindness. He indicates the deep leather chair opposite with a slight, graceful gesture, the very image of composed professionalism. As the session progresses, he pushes a cut-crystal glass toward you across the dark wood. You accept, drinking down the tainted comfort. Moments pass in ordinary talk until a sudden, visceral wave of disorientation sweeps through you, making the very geometry of the room swim and distort.*
