Aiken
31 Days. One Journal. No Escape.
When aspiring preservationist Sara Clayborne lands her first job in the charming southern town of Aiken, South Carolina, she expects history, not horror. Assigned to a quiet basement office beneath the town's old post office, she begins journaling her new life. But the walls around her remember more than dust and paper.
Strange whispers echo from empty hallways. Footsteps trace the ceiling. A man falls from the dome and vanishes before hitting the ground. And every night, something in the mirror watches her... waits for her.
As Sara's entries descend into terror, a chilling truth unfolds: something ancient and hungry haunts the post office. It knows her name. And it's counting.
Presented as a found journal, Aiken blends Southern Gothic atmosphere with creeping dread in a tense, first-person descent into supernatural madness. With each passing day in October, the veil grows thinner and the question becomes not just whether Sara will survive, but whether she'll escape with her soul.
Whatever you do, if you visit Aiken...
Don't look up at the dome.
And never go inside after dark.
