  Follow the clues. Question reality.  
  The truth may be darker than anyone imagined. 
  When a group of friends vanish under mysterious circumstances, the only clues about what happened are found in a logbook maintained by a man named Mori, who is suspected of involvement in their disappearance. 
  Mori’s logbook paints a picture of a solitary man drinking to forget his past and the family he abandoned. One night, he is shaken from his hazy daze by a disembodied voice calling from “across the Cosmic Gulf,” asking him to help find a missing woman. 
  Obsessed and afraid that he may be losing his grip on reality, Mori’s otherworldly investigation leads him to his captivating neighbor—a radiant woman with a troubled past—and her effortlessly cool, young friends. Each has their own reasons for joining his strange quest, and together they navigate a labyrinth of uncanny phenomena across modern-day Los Angeles. 
  At the heart of the mystery, they suspect an elusive serial abductor lurks. But what they uncover is something darker still. 
  Now all of them are gone. And this book is all that's left.

  “The Masque of the Red Death”, originally published as “The Mask of the Red Death: A Fantasy” (1842), is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe. The story follows Prince Prospero's attempts to avoid a dangerous plague, known as the Red Death, by hiding in his abbey. He, along with many other wealthy nobles, hosts a masquerade ball within seven rooms of the abbey, each decorated with a different color. In the midst of their revelry, a mysterious figure disguised as a Red Death victim enters and makes his way through each of the rooms. Prospero dies after confronting this stranger, whose "costume" proves to contain nothing tangible inside it; the guests also die in turn.Poe's story follows many traditions of Gothic fiction and is often analyzed as an allegory about the inevitability of death, though some critics advise against an allegorical reading. Many different interpretations have been presented, as well as attempts to identify the true nature of the titular disease. The story was first published in May 1842 in Graham's Magazine and has since been adapted in many different forms, including a 1964 film starring Vincent Price. Additionally, it has been alluded to by other works in many types of media.
