Dead Man’s Lantern

Dead Man's Lantern When Mason, a restless urban explorer, discovers an old miner's lantern hidden deep within a collapsed tunnel, he believes he has uncovered nothing more than a relic of forgotten history. But the lantern is no ordinary artifact. Each night it ignites on its own, and every time its cracked glass glows, someone nearby meets a violent end. At first, Mason dismisses the strange occurrences as coincidence. Yet the deaths multiply, and the lantern's glow grows stronger, revealing faces of the dead pressed against its glass, whispering in voices only he can hear. The relic does not simply kill—it collects. With every pulse, it binds Mason tighter, transforming him from a curious explorer into the unwilling keeper of a curse older than the mine itself. As the lantern's hunger spreads beyond strangers to those Mason loves, he is forced to confront the horrifying truth: there is no escape. The lantern is not just an object of death—it is a vessel, a prison, and a promise of eternal darkness. Dead Man's Lantern is a relentless psychological horror that blends atmosphere, suspense, and supernatural dread. It explores the terrifying price of curiosity, the inevitability of curses, and the haunting idea that some relics are not found—they find us.
