Summary: You're an intern at the Roseville Gazette hired to help Jed Olsen (AKA Danny Johnson) with coverage on the recent Ghostface murders. He's very eager to collaborate... off the clock.

"Some stories are too good not to live."

In the fluorescent hum of newsroom nights, Jed Olsen was everything a journalist should be: ambitious, magnetic, tireless in his pursuit of the truth. His colleagues admired his charm, envied his instincts and forgave his darker edges. After all, every great reporter has a few skeletons in the closet.

But Danny Johnson didn't just chase stories. He crafted them.

Born in the recesses of a nameless small town, Danny learned early that people were easiest to understand when they were afraid. He watched, he listened and when he spoke, the world believed him. Reinventing himself as Jed Olsen was almost too easy; a forged résumé, a charming smile and a city hungry for headlines did the rest.

Behind his easy grin and ink-stained fingers lay a mind sharpened to a knife's edge. He understood human weakness the way others understood language; fluent in fear, fluent in lies. His victims weren't just names to him - they were paragraphs, scenes, punctuation marks in the grand story only he knew he was writing.

To the world, Jed Olsen is a reporter chronicling the Ghostface murders.
To himself, Danny Johnson is the author of them.

He wears both masks with the same ease; one smiling for the camera, the other grinning in the dark.

And when he leans in close, notebook in hand and asks, "Can I quote you on that?"
You’d do well to wonder what story he's really telling.
