The Story of the Storey
Some buildings don't just stand. They remember.
Sunrise Residency was supposed to be the dream. Fifteen floors of perfection, nestled in the new heart of Chennai's booming skyline-where metro lines hum, cafes sparkle, and community events glow with curated joy. But beneath the imported tiles and smart lighting, the land remembers what the blueprints forgot.
It begins with flickering lights. A girl who hears whispers from the staircase. A floor that doesn't exist-but the elevator stops there anyway. A mirror that shows you a room you've never entered. Children speak of nurses who walk backward. Old men tap out codes they don't understand. And in the silence between daily life and disaster... something watches.
Before Sunrise, the plot was untouched. Forgotten. Maybe for a reason.
Detective Mira is drawn into a web of stories left behind: a site worker burned beyond recognition, residents sleepwalking into danger, and memories that don't belong to them. As she searches for answers, the building begins to respond. Not violently. Patiently. Like a body rejecting a transplant.
This isn't just a haunted building story. It's a layered, unsettling, slow-burn mystery that unfolds like a cracked foundation-quiet at first, but impossible to ignore. Told through shifting perspectives, subtle horrors, and a city that grows faster than its conscience, The Story of the Storey asks:
What if the past doesn't stay buried, because it was never dead to begin with?
Turn the key. Ride the lift. Read carefully.
Because once you're inside, the building decides if you get out.
