Dear David

Terror goes viral.

Shortly after comic artist Adam responds to Internet trolls, he begins experiencing sleep paralysis - while an empty rocking chair moves in the corner of his apartment. As he chronicles increasingly malevolent occurrences in a series of tweets, Adam begins to believe he is being haunted by the ghost of a dead child named David. Encouraged by his boss to continue the “Dear David” thread, Adam starts to lose his grip on what is online... and what is real.
