If you wish to see what lies beyond the darkness... we’ll reach there together. 🕯️ Story Documentary photographer Alex Carter follows the trail of his missing grandfather to the forgotten town of Lynxvale . But this place holds more than the remains of the past  it echoes something that was never meant to be remembered. At the heart of the town stands the Hollow Apartments , a silent graveyard of trapped memories. Each apartment carries the shadow of a life once lived. Each floor unveils a part of Alex he never knew existed. And every whisper pulls him deeper into himself. This journey is the first step toward truth... or perhaps where the truth truly begins. ⚙️ Key Features 🧠 Psychological Horror: A descent into the fragile border between sanity and delusion. 🔦 Exploration & Survival: Every step echoes through the silence.
