A stifling creative block drives young illustrator Alaric Vance to the faded grandeur of a Brooklyn brownstone, and the enigmatic pull of Apartment 13B. But this isn't just any apartment. It breathes history, whispers secrets, and harbors thirteen restless ghosts tethered to its past. Alaric isn't haunted; he's *inspired*. The brownstone itself is a character, its creaking floorboards echoing with whispers of bygone eras. Meet Mr. Finch, the Victorian baker forever grieving a lost love, his spectral bakery filling the air with phantom scents of cinnamon and burnt sugar. Encounter Naomi, a flapper whose enigmatic riddles hint at a jazz-age heartbreak, a secret hidden within a phantom speakeasy. And then there's Misha, the brilliant programmer trapped in a loop of corrupted code, mirroring the corruption that culminated in the tragic fire that scarred the building decades ago. Alaric strikes a bargain: he'll paint their stories, hoping to grant them release. But with every brushstroke, the past bleeds into the present. A forgotten speakeasy materializes beneath his feet, pulsing with phantom jazz. Mr. Finch's spectral oven flickers with an unnervingly real flame. Reality itself bends and twists as Alaric's art rewrites not just the ghosts' pasts, but his own present. As twelve shadows begin to fade, a chilling pattern emerges, linking the ghosts to a shared secret tied to the devastating fire-a fire whispered to be sabotage. The thirteenth ghost remains, a silent specter lurking in the darkness, the architect of their spectral prison. Alaric's connection deepens when he discovers his great-grandmother perished in that very fire, leaving behind a sketchbook filled with chilling premonitions. He's not just an artist; he's the inheritor of her unfinished legacy, a legacy intertwined with the building's tragic history. He must confront the echoes of his family's past, unravel a conspiracy, and face the thirteenth ghost - Elias Thorne, the architect who designed the building and the mastermind behind the fire. Now, Alaric's art becomes his weapon. Can he paint a new narrative, a path not of destruction but of redemption, before the building-and he himself-is consumed by the flames of a re-ignited past?
