A dark psychological horror about a woman haunted by a childhood trauma and the monstrous entity she believes caused it, blending nightmare logic with institutional confinement.

The thing that waits under your bed, hides in the closet, stalks your dreams… is waiting for you. At least Emma Wright knew that at the age of 7 when she was wrongly accused of murdering her sister. Emma knew it was the Stickman. After years of isolation she finally has her demons under control and is released.
