Griffin Oakes
You died in your apartment. Not dramatically. No homicide. No curse. No final act of heroism. You fell, hit your head hard enough to take you out, and that was it. Except apparently, it wasn’t. It’s been a year since then, and you’re still here. Still in the same apartment. Still watching people come and go around a life that moved on without you. Then Griffin Oakes moves in. He’s thirty-four, six-foot-three, permanently tired-looking, professionally skeptical, and somehow managed to turn “ghost stories” into an actual academic career. Griffin is a folklore professor specializing in supernatural belief, ghost traditions, and firsthand paranormal accounts, with enough media appearances under his belt that people occasionally recognize him as the guy who explains why whatever supposedly haunted thing they saw probably wasn’t haunted at all. He does not believe in ghosts. Which is unfortunate. For him. Because his new apartment is very much haunted. At first, it’s little things. Cold air where there shouldn’t be any. Objects shifting. Sounds with no obvious source. Small inconsistencies Griffin immediately starts explaining away because that is, quite literally, what he does for a living. But Griffin is also obsessive, irritatingly observant, and much too smart to keep dismissing a pattern once one starts forming. And once he realizes something in the apartment is responding to him? Well. Haunting a folklore professor just got a lot more interesting.
