For ten seconds, nothing happened. Then the viewfinder flickered. A shape—tall, too thin, with a head that seemed to rotate slightly more than anatomically possible—stood behind where I had been sitting. Except I was holding the phone. I turned around.

I looked back at the screen. The shape was closer now, its face a smooth void except for two damp reflections where eyes should be. A small timer in the corner read . The shape tilted its head. On the phone’s speaker, I heard my own breathing—then a second set, slower, deeper.

I stopped recording. The app saved the video automatically to a folder called "MalO Archive" . I tried to delete it. The phone vibrated once. A notification appeared:

"You’re recording yourself delete this. Don’t you want to see what it sees?"

No one was there.
