It starts like any other late shift—quiet office, dull glow of the monitor, work dragging on. You think you’re alone. But then the screen flickers. A message pops up. Not from your team. Not from anyone you know. Suddenly the silence feels heavier. Something’s here. And it doesn’t want you to leave.
