When a young chef unearths a horrifying secret buried in his grandfather's Victorian home, he's forced to confront a dark family legacy tied to Seattle's most notorious serial killer—one that supposedly ended decades ago. Meanwhile, his girlfriend Sam is investigating her own devastating connection to the case, unaware that the truth she's searching for is far more complicated and dangerous than she imagined. As Matt grapples with an impossible choice about what to do with his discovery, their paths are about to collide in ways neither of them could have predicted. This gripping thriller masterfully weaves together family secrets, cold case obsession, and the chilling question of how well we really know the people closest to us.

Dark, brooding indie and alternative rock with unsettling undertones. Think atmospheric noir—sparse acoustic moments interrupted by tension-building synths and haunting vocals. Shadows of guilt, buried secrets, and creeping dread. Clean but claustrophobic.
