Summary: There's something strange about Sam's new roommate, Nick. For one, he doesn't leave their dorm seemingly ever, until Sam catches him sneaking around the halls at night; Sam has also never seen him eat a bite of food, but he always looks at Sam as though he's on the menu; and he speaks as though he's been at Cornwall University for 100 years.
What started as an assigned roommate rapidly has Sam feeling like he's lost his mind, leading him down a rabbit hole of occult research, dark desire, and fearful warnings from those from Nick's past.
As he reaches deeper into the darkness in the bed next to his, he starts to think that Nick not only isn't who he says he is, but he's also not the monster he thinks.
