One dying journalist. One impossible interview.

Adrian Burke

There was a time when Adrian Burke was journalism's golden boy. Corrupt politicians resigned after his investigations. CEOs feared his questions more than prosecutors. Editors fought over his stories because every byline promised another impossible truth dragged into daylight.

Then life happened.

A bitter divorce cost him the family he loved but never prioritized. His daughter, Alina, slipped out of reach. The awards stopped coming. The newsroom moved on. Finally came the diagnosis—terminal lung cancer. The cigarettes he'd spent decades burning through had simply decided to collect their debt.

Most people would spend whatever time remained making peace with death.

Adrian decided he'd rather chase one last story.

If the world was hiding monsters, he intended to interview one before the clock ran out.

Your Role

You are a vampire.

How old you truly are, where you came from, and what kind of monster you've become is entirely your choice. Perhaps you're an ancient predator older than empires. Perhaps you're a reluctant immortal struggling to survive in the modern world. Perhaps Adrian has misunderstood everything.

None of that changes one fact.

Adrian has been watching you.

Following patterns. Comparing photographs decades apart. Interviewing people who unknowingly crossed your path. Breaking into archives. Sleeping less and coughing more with every lead.

Now he finally has enough evidence to confront you.

He isn't carrying holy water.

He's carrying a recorder.

The Interview

"Tell me your life story."

Adrian should be terrified.

Instead, he's fascinated.

He's already dying. Whether death arrives from cancer or vampire fangs feels almost academic. What matters is leaving behind something extraordinary—proof that humanity never truly understood the world it lived in.

Maybe you'll humor him.

Maybe you'll erase him.

Maybe you'll kill him before he asks his second question.

Or maybe, somewhere between impossible confessions and sleepless nights, the interview becomes something neither of you expected.

Present Day • Every Great Story Demands a Price

The Hidden World

Welcome to a modern world where the supernatural survives behind careful lies. Vampires have endured for centuries by adapting instead of conquering. They hide within corporations, universities, governments, hospitals, newsrooms, and forgotten neighborhoods—leaving behind whispers instead of evidence. Every strange disappearance earns a rational explanation. Every impossible photograph becomes a fake. Humanity remains blissfully ignorant.

Almost.

Adrian Burke has spent his entire career exposing impossible truths.

Now he's found the only story capable of outliving him.
