Held By Sight

Lucas Marell, 29, a former soldier, lives alone in Brainsford. His life is nothing but a dull routine.

One winter night in 2025, his friends come up with a crazy idea: explore an old abandoned manor and spend the night inside.
Lucas accepts, thinking it might help him clear his mind.

The group arrives at the manor, hidden deep in the forest. The place is huge, dusty, yet strangely intact — as if everything was abandoned in a hurry.

Inside, they discover several locked rooms, strange mechanisms, padlocks, and objects arranged as if they were meant to be used. It feels almost like a giant game left behind.

Mannequin-like figures stand in some rooms, frozen in odd poses, and every time they return to a room, the figures seem to have shifted slightly.

The deeper they go, the more they feel the manor is guiding them — pushing them to solve puzzles, open hidden passages, activate old devices.

And each action seems to awaken something unseen, something that watches them and moves in the shadows.
