What begins as a personal investigation into forgotten psychiatric abuse unravels into something far stranger. The building doesn't just hold memories-it preserves them. Distorts them. And plays them back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough lost patient files, broken recordings, and timelines that won't stay still, Ivana uncovers the asylum's connection to a white-led cult that twisted African Voudou rituals for power. Their goal wasn't healing. It was control-of time, of suffering, of something buried beneath the well at the asylum's center.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe deeper Ivana goes, the more she realizes she's not an outsider.
