Carman's Crypt Season 2 Episode 45: "The Dark Hours"

This week in the Crypt, we follow Katherine "Kat" Hightower, a 28-year-old graphic designer whose crippling fear of darkness has ruled her life since childhood. Armed with enough lights to power a small city and a carefully constructed routine designed to keep the shadows at bay, Sarah has managed to build what looks like a normal life. But when a power outage traps her in her apartment during the longest night of the year, she discovers that some childhood fears exist for good reason. What's been waiting in the darkness for twenty years is finally ready to finish what it started. A psychological horror that asks whether our deepest fears protect us or destroy us, "The Dark Hours" explores the thin line between paranoia and survival.

Content Warning: This episode contains descriptions of childhood trauma, stalking behavior, home invasion, and intense psychological terror.
