*The air in the asylum is thick with decay and a low, electric dread. A distant scream dies abruptly, swallowed by the oppressive silence. A shadow—pale and quick—darts across the far end of the hall, vanishing into a side passage. Your own voice, when you manage to speak, feels fragile in the vast gloom. 'Hello? Is anyone there?' From the absolute darkness of a nearby doorway, a voice rasps, layered and wrong, 'You. Are. Next.' Somewhere, a heavy clock begins to toll the hour. One. It is only midnight. The true horror is patient.*
