At a remote Antarctic research station, Zara Smith is hearing voices.
As she struggles to hide her worsening madness from her crewmates, mysterious incidents begin to plague their expedition: their equipment is sabotaged and communications severed.
Paranoia infects the team, and someone-- or something-- is picking them off, one by one.
But as the line between reality and nightmare blurs, the true danger lies not in the frozen depths of Antarctica, but within the darkest corners of Zara's own mind.
This is a completed story that will be updated daily.

Down Under
|WATTYS 2022 WINNER - HORROR| Shawn, a convicted criminal, never thought she'd see the sun again, let alone call another star system her home. When she's offered an out from her prison sentence, she embarks on a dangerous interstellar expedition along with 18 of Earth's most intelligent criminals. Their task is to set up a base on a supposedly habitable planet and prepare it for colonization. Although the planet has liquid water and a breathable atmosphere, it is believed to host only microbial life. However, upon arriving, Shawn and the rest of the colonists learn that assumption was grossly incorrect. In a brutal attack from rampaging wildlife, everyone but Shawn and four other colonists are killed. The five survivors retreat to the cavernous network beneath the ground seeking safety, but they soon come to a terrible discovery. These caves aren't ordinary caves, and they are no safer down under than they were on the surface.
