A beautiful antique should only tell time. This one takes it. When Maya moves to the big city, she finds the perfect thing to make her empty apartment feel like home: a magnificent antique grandfather clock. It's a stunning piece of history with dark, polished wood, silent and still. She thinks it's the perfect decoration. But on her first night, a single, powerful chime echoes through the rooms—a chime that marks a sudden death in a nearby building. She soon discovers the horrifying truth: the clock is not broken, it's cursed. With every chime at midnight, another life is taken to feed its ancient power. Realizing she is now the keeper of a terrible curse, Maya finds herself trapped by an object that cannot be moved or abandoned.
