About this listen
After his divorce, all Martin wanted was something that was finally his own. A house with good bones. Windows that let in light. A place where he wasn't just a guest in someone else's life.
The security system was his first project. He mapped every room, named every zone, watched the app turn green with the satisfaction of a man who finally controlled something.
Then the notifications started.
Motion detected: Library.
He doesn't have a library.
Motion detected: Attic.
It's a single-story house.
Motion detected: The Mourning Chamber. The Room of Old Photographs. The Final Room.
Every time he deletes them, they come back. And the dreams are getting harder to ignore—a woman with kind eyes, showing him through rooms that couldn't exist, rooms that know exactly what he needs to feel whole again.
She promises him belonging. Peace. A place that's truly his.
All he has to do is stay.
As the zones multiply and the woman's visits grow more vivid, Martin starts sleeping more. Losing time. Fading. And the security system keeps adding rooms he never named, documenting spaces that shouldn't exist, mapping the architecture of something that isn't a house at all—but a trap disguised as home.
