17 year old Orion has recently moved to a new town due to the harassment and transphobia they faced at their old one. They're a person stained with old memories that they'd like to forget. 
    
     Thats why they're ecstatic when the local group of queer outcasts- Elliot, Sam, and Xen- invite Orion to hangout at their self-proclaimed safe space: an hidden creek bordered by old concrete ruins and the twisted stories behind them. 
    
    It only becomes a problem when Sam goes missing in the tunnel that everyone ventured into. 
    
    A few days later, the bodies start appearing. Limbs broken and flesh mutilated by fire. 
    
    Stoneridge is a small town stained with hidden secrets. And it's with Sam's disappearance that they start slowly rotting to the surface. 
    
    Yeah. This definitely was a bad idea.
