Spoilers ahead

As the darkness envelops Jennifer Adams in the parking garage, an unsettling sensation wraps around her like an icy gust. She momentarily believes she has escaped an unseen threat, but relief proves fleeting. A hastily made phone call intended to terminate this terrifying encounter only leads to the monotonous beeping of hold music, stretching the silence into an oppressive blanket of tension.

Just as a flicker of hope begins to stir within her, Jennifer’s eyes are drawn to an ominous figure emerging from the shadows — a hooded stranger wielding a bat lined with jagged nails. Panic surges through her as she seeks refuge within the cold confines of the elevator, but the attacker seems to evaporate into thin air like a ghost.
