Summary

What happens when the hunger for greatness meets a machine that dreams darker than any man ever could? In this haunting episode, we invite you to step into the glowing light of a screen that never sleeps—a realm where creativity blurs with madness, and code becomes a conduit for something far older than intelligence. When one man's pursuit of artistic legacy crosses a forbidden threshold, he finds himself entangled in a web of horrors he helped bring into being... but can no longer control. With a story penned and performed by one of CTFDN's veteran voices, our latest episode is a descent into the uncanny, the unspeakable, and the inevitable. This isn’t just horror for the modern age—it’s a whisper from the void in the voice of your own ambition.
