CRAVEN

Seventeen-year-old Haruki's life is already upended when economic troubles force him and his single mother, Akari, to a new, unfamiliar city. He yearns for a quiet fresh start, but that hope shatters the moment he meets Yamiko. She's enigmatic, captivating, and unsettlingly familiar. As strange incidents plague their new home, Haruki finds himself drawn deeper into Yamiko's orbit, a pull that turns sinister when he stumbles upon an old 1927 newspaper article. The grainy photo of a student from nearly a century ago is undeniably her. Yamiko isn't just a girl with secrets; she's something else entirely, an antagonist from the past who will force Haruki to confront a terrifying truth that bridges history and horror, transforming their new city into a chilling battleground for survival.
