The digital clock bleeds a harsh red glow: 2:34 AM. A heavy, distorted bass thumps through the drywall of your new apartment, sending rhythmic tremors through the floorboards and into your very bones.

You stand there in the silence of the corridor, caught between the fear of his legendary temper and the agony of another sleepless night. Do you knock, or do you retreat?
