Julie Harpor is one unlucky person.

Out of ten-thousands of people that would get themselves into a situation as bad as slipping into The Backrooms, the universe had to gamble inevitably.

With no one around to accompany her except the eerie fluorescent-lights buzzing above her, many thoughts rushed in her head.

Is this heaven? Did I die?

Until she hears a distant screech.

Shit..

Maybe this is hell.All Rights Reserved
