You will have to face a spooky curse that has taken over a theater and a powerful ghost of the stage. Another important artifact needs your help. At first, the theater seems normal, but it has been closed for a long time. Something really strange happened here. The audience members froze in their seats. They could no longer think or speak. The stage was taken over by dark forces.
The people in the audience are still alive, but their bodies are being controlled by another force. Everyone has their own evil and dark, cursed object that has been created with a person’s anger and sadness. Walking through the empty rooms and dark hallways, you are slowly telling the story of a stage actor who loved the theater and gave his life for it.
After the character died, he got a second chance to be a human. A certain mask gave him his voice back and even made people love him again. But then something horrible happened, someone took the mask and took away his only hope. Angered, the ghost turned the audience into shadows and said the curse would not be lifted until the mask was returned.
It is now your responsibility to return to the audience and find out who took the mask. You need to search the back of the theater, examine every inch of the theater, and figure out what is a part of the show and what is real. Only by learning the truth about the mask and the audience can you break the curse and end the sad story playing out before your eyes.
