By day, Carter's Barbershop is just another quiet place in Brookside.
A spot for clean fades, casual conversation, and familiar faces.
But after hours, something listens.
Isaiah Carter has spent more than a century hiding in plain sight, bound by a personal code that only targets those who confess cruelty in his chair. He believes he is correcting a broken world-one quiet judgment at a time.
Until grief makes him break his own rules.
When a familiar name resurfaces, Isaiah's restraint collapses, triggering consequences that unravel his immortality and expose a terrifying truth behind his existence.
Told through haunting, poetic chapters, After Hours at Carter's is a psychological horror thriller about confession, consequence, and the dangerous comfort of believing you are the one who decides who deserves mercy.
Because monsters don't always hide in shadows.
Sometimes they wait for you to speak.
