DARK SECRETS LURK WITHIN THIS WALLS

Some houses don't demand obedience.
They reward restraint.
When Croc moves into a quiet, isolated house tied to the name Marcus, nothing feels overtly wrong. The rooms are clean. The structure is sound. But the silence feels deliberate, and the house responds in ways that suggest it's paying attention.
As days pass, Croc begins to notice patterns rules that are never spoken, corrections that happen only when necessary, and a presence that doesn't punish mistakes, but waits to see what he'll do next.
The longer he stays, the harder it becomes to tell whether he's being watched...
or whether he's learning how to watch himself.
This is a psychological horror story about control, responsibility, and the moment staying stops feeling like a choice.
