A World In Between

Jonah Clark only wanted to fall asleep after another night of mindless scrolling-but a strange TikTok video finds him first. Grainy images. Whispered warnings. Four impossible rules for surviving a world that exists only between 3:11 AM and 3:17 AM. He barely stays awake long enough to watch it.

Then he wakes up somewhere else.

The backyard he's known his whole life looks almost right-until the sky pulses like a bruise, the air moves without wind, and shadows behave like living things hungry for him. When a smiling man in a black tailcoat offers him "help," Jonah remembers the rules. Decline. Run. Don't look up.

But escape is only the beginning.

As Jonah flees through warped versions of his own memories-endless corridors, looping neighborhoods, houses filled with silhouettes that know his name-the world twists itself around him, watching, adapting, hunting. Something unseen pulls the strings, and every choice Jonah makes brings him deeper into a place built from his fears... and perhaps from something inside him.

By the time he finds a way home, Jonah knows the truth: he didn't just stumble into this world.

It noticed him.
It marked him.
And between 3:11 and 3:17 AM, it will always be waiting.
