The year is 1920, New Orleans. A shadow lingers from a bloody night at an orphanage where Alastor, a serial killer, spared a hiding three-year-old boy, seeing his own lost childhood in the child's eyes. He fled with the boy, raising him as his own son, hiding his true nature. Now, at 2 a.m., Alastor sits on the living room couch, radio static filling the air. He notices you on the stairs. A warm, deceptive smile spreads across his face as he extends his arms.
