The Architecture of Silence

When Elias Thorne, a specialist in restorative architecture, is hired to renovate the derelict Oakhaven Estate, he expects nothing more than rot and dust. But Oakhaven is no ordinary ruin. Built by a reclusive occultist in the 19th century, the house was designed with “impossible geometry”—hallways that stretch, rooms that disappear, and walls that seem to breathe.

As Elias delves into the house’s blueprint, he discovers a terrifying secret: the estate wasn’t built for the living, nor was it built for the dead. It was built to trap a sound that has been screaming since 1924. Now, the silence is breaking, and the house is hungry for a new voice to fill its voids.
