Crypt... G: The Castle Kept Its Secrets Too Well

When an emotionally bruised historian is summoned to a forgotten castle buried in the Black Forest, he believes it's for a routine restoration project. What he finds is a ruin untouched by time—its rooms preserved, its furniture undisturbed, and its secrets sealed behind silence and shadows.

Drawn to the faded grandeur and eerie quiet, he begins reconstructing the estate’s lost legacy. Yet, as old journals resurface and strange symbols echo across the stone halls, he starts to doubt what he’s remembering—and what he’s forgetting. A woman’s lullaby echoes where no voice should remain. A spiral mark appears in places no hand has touched.

As the archivist pieces together the tragic fall of a reclusive family and their obsession with silence, the castle begins to rewrite his own memories. Why does he dream of rooms he hasn't entered? Who sent the invitation sealed in wax? And why does the name Marten always linger just out of reach?

In this atmospheric Gothic thriller of decayed beauty and haunted legacies, nothing is stable—not time, not memory, not even the truth. Some places were never meant to be archived.

What happens when you dig too deep into a past that remembers you back?
