Elliot Vance is a washed-up stage actor who discovers a gift—or curse—that lets him become the roles he plays. At first, it’s intoxicating: charisma on demand, strength where he’s weak, masks he never has to take off. But every performance leaves a crack, and soon his stage personas bleed into the real world. When the curtain falls, he doesn’t step out of character—he drags the character out with him.
As bodies pile up and reality warps under the weight of his fractured identity, Elliot finds himself both predator and prisoner. Is he the actor controlling the mask, or has the mask already swallowed him whole?
Genre: Psychological thriller / dark fantasy
Themes: Identity vs. illusion, the cost of ambition, the danger of losing yourself in the roles you play
