GAME OVERVIEW
Each episode stands alone, drawing from stories people swear actually happened to them. That’s what makes the horror hit so close—it feels like something that could really happen to you or someone you know.
The first episode, Ashburg Rental, centers on Riley Adams. She’s fresh out of college, just landed her first teaching job, and moves to the quiet town of Ashburg, hoping to start over.
She rents a small house, wanting a bit of peace and a chance to get her life on track. At first, everything seems boringly normal. But the house? Not as empty as it looks. RED DAWN

Within of Static is a first-person, episodic psychological horror series that ditches cheap jump scares for real, human fears.
The story kicks off on a rainy night. It starts out calm, almost soothing, but that doesn’t last. As Riley tries to settle in, the little things start to pile up—the weird sounds, the way some things aren’t where she left them. You can feel the tension grow, not through big scares, but through silence, atmosphere, and that slow, creeping feeling that something’s not right.
Gameplay leans into exploration and storytelling. You walk through Riley’s world, poking around, picking up on clues, and using in-game devices to piece things together. Everything unfolds in real time, so the fear sneaks up on you, building one uneasy moment at a time.
Visually, it’s got that grainy VHS vibe. The environments feel lived-in, almost too real, and there’s a twist—sometimes your own voice can affect what happens, thanks to the microphone feature. It’s a short, tight episode you can finish in one sitting, but don’t expect to shake off that unsettled feeling when it’s over. This one lingers.
