STATIC

In Avasian Parish, Louisiana, the past does not stay buried.It replays.When a trail of recovered tapes, police files, school recordings, and whispered local legends begins surfacing around town, old wounds are forced back into the light. What starts as the disappearance of Taylor Marks quickly unravels into something far more disturbing: a found-footage nightmare built from bullying, humiliation, guilt, and the damage people leave behind.As victims, witnesses, and buried secrets begin to blur together, a masked figure and a malicious signal known only as LIVE drag the town deeper into a psychological spiral. Every tape reveals another confession. Every memory demands a reckoning. And everyone caught in the signal must confront what they ignored, what they allowed, and who they became when cruelty was easier than compassion.Told through recovered footage, transcripts, case files, and traditional narrative, STATIC blends suspense, mystery, psychological horror, and found-footage terror into a chilling story about accountability, survival, and the dark echoes of everyday choices.You are not reading the tape.The tape is reading you.From filmmaker and author Jack Hunter II, STATIC is a haunting found-footage horror novel for readers who enjoy analog horror, psychological thrillers, slasher mystery, true-crime dread, and stories where the scariest monster is not always the one wearing the mask.
