Description

When a young woman moves into an eccentric boarding house in Eugene, Oregon, she expects quirky roommates but instead encounters a chilling moral descent. The lead tenant's decision to host 'The Penguin,' a man with a disturbing criminal past, turns the household into a pressure cooker of gaslighting and intimidation. Forced out for standing her ground, the narrator doesn't just leave; she orchestrates a clever, 'supernatural' campaign of revenge using Latin incantations and hidden surprises. This gripping first-person account explores the thin line between hospitality and danger, culminating in a satisfyingly dark retaliation against those who prioritized loyalty over safety.
