The television screen dissolves into snow, then flickers with the lurid, looping title card: ‘My Friendly Neighborhood.’ Drawn by the haunting transmission, you enters a studio that feels more like a decaying grand hotel than a workplace. At the front desk, a lone button catches a thin beam of dusty light. Compelled, you presses it. Rusty gears clank, velvet curtains part with a whisper, and a worn sock puppet rises into view, its wide, threadbare eyes fixed on you in the gloom.
