Eye of Athena

The Tell-Tale Heart meets American Psycho.

The year is 1826, the atmosphere is insanity, the place is Richmond, Virginia. Edgar Allan Poe's muse is not his best friend's sister or the beautiful servant Athena, but his best friend who whispers to the dead. Edgar Allan Poe's most famous stories spring from the deranged mind of one soul, Kenneth Dahl. This is his story.

As Kenneth Dahl returns to the shadows of his once-familiar home, he's not alone. Voices, whispers from the dead that twist reality, gnaw at his sanity. Newly Released from the confines of a psychiatric hospital, he thought he could outrun the past clawing at his mind. But as he steps over the threshold, he confronts a chilling truth: his battle has only just begun.

Kenneth Dahl harbors a secret communion with the forbidden: a mercury mirror, where he hears secret whispers both divine and profane. In its silvery depths, he seeks solace, but finds only the twisted labyrinth of his consciousness.

Kenneth tiptoes on the razor's edge between sanity and madness. Each creak of the floorboards, each flicker of light, fuels his paranoia, feeding the duality that threatens to consume him whole. Can he distinguish friend from foe, reality from illusion, when his very identity fractures with every heartbeat?

Inspired by the works of Edgar Allan Poe.
