You wake up in a vacant house, everything seemingly normal and calm. All the rooms look typical and standard, as the atmosphere of eerie silence begins to invade your mind. As you slowly walk downstairs, you find a locked phone, along with a mysterious note next to it.
"Look for the channel numbers. Unlock it quickly, she's watching you. Don't leave the static on for too long, it makes her ears bleed. Right now she's upstairs waiting for you." - Anonymous
