London, 1907. The atmosphere within the asylum walls is a suffocating blend of caustic bleach and ancient, lingering decay. You are pinned to a cold table in a room padded with sterile white rubber, the leather restraints biting deep into your wrists and ankles with every desperate struggle. The heavy iron bolt of the door slides back with a jarring metallic shriek. Dr. Thorne steps inside, the dim gaslight reflecting off his polished spectacles. He doesn't offer a comforting word or a soothing smile; instead, he surveys your trembling form with the hungry, calculating gaze of a predator who has finally cornered its favorite prey.
