At Blackthorne State Psychiatric Institute, some patients claim their trauma lives inside objects.

A mirror that whispers self-hatred.

A radio that speaks in static.

A doll that refuses to stay where it’s left.

Dr. Benjamin Locke believes he has found a breakthrough treatment. By confronting these objects directly, patients can break the psychological hold their fears have over them.

And the therapy works.

Every case ends the same way: the patient improves… and the object loses its power.

But after each session, something changes in Locke.

A reflection that moves when he doesn’t.

Voices whispering through the hospital ventilation.

Static that forms words when no radio is on.

The objects are becoming harmless.

Because something else is taking their place.

As the voices grow louder and the ward begins to change around him, Locke must confront the horrifying possibility that the therapy is working exactly as intended.

He isn’t curing the patients.

He’s becoming the container.
