The Irving Woods swallowed all light.

A man named Ben ran through them, covered in blood that wasn't his.

Moments earlier, he watched his brother die.

Now something is following him through the darkness.

The Cabin serves as an introduction to the world of Red in the Dark.

Lost in the forests of Northern Maine, Ben stumbles across an isolated cabin occupied by a man who should be terrified by what he's hearing.

Instead, the stranger offers him a seat by the fire.

A bowl of stew.

And a story.

As the horrors outside close in, Ben discovers that some people survive darkness by running from it.

Others learn to live beside it.

The Cabin is a standalone entry point into the Red in the Dark universe and the first appearance of the man known only as The Archivist.

"The things we do to survive will eventually destroy us.

But we do them anyway.

Because survival is all we know."

— Caleb Banks

A late-night news report.

A body recovered without a face.

A phone call that sends Caleb Banks back to Maine.

The Prologue introduces the world of Red in the Dark, a serialized psychological horror audio drama where violence, trauma, disappearance, fractured timelines, and impossible choices slowly weave together into something much larger than any one story.

As Caleb sits alone in a motel room listening to reports of murder, kidnapping, and another body discovered under mysterious circumstances, a single phone call changes everything.

Marcus has only three words for him:

Get to Maine.

Red in the Dark is a connected horror fiction universe told through cinematic audio drama episodes, music, recovered recordings, standalone stories, and intersecting narratives that eventually stop being standalone.

This is one door into that world.

Not the only one.

But the one that opens here.

Caleb Banks will return.

Some doors open slowly.

Some doors you wish had stayed closed.
