The Last Broadcast

In the remote, fog-shrouded town of Millhaven, superstition holds sway, and silence is salvation. Embarrassed radio DJ Jack Mercer is back in his hometown in one final attempt at salvaging his career, going live on a Halloween broadcast to reveal the town's darkest tale: the Revenant, a ghost said to take one soul every decade. But Millhaven's inhabitants—tightly lipped and haunted by centuries of guilt—won't talk about the curse, forcing Jack to rummage through decaying archives and deserted buildings for clues. When he discovers a decades-old diary of Evelyn Carter, a woman who disappeared while searching for the Revenant, Jack learns a chilling truth: the villagers' forebears summoned the creature, sacrificing lives for temporary peace. Jack knows the Revenant is no legend as his broadcast plans come apart—equipment breaking down, figures haunting the abandoned town hall. It's alive. And it's hungry. Halloween night, Jack's live broadcast, and the town's suppressed transgressions boil over. The listeners are overwhelmed by shrieked voices through static images of their worst regrets. Cornered in the hall with the Revenant's claws around his throat, Jack is presented with a terrible decision: die to shatter the cycle or escape, dooming Millhaven to perpetual suffering. But the Revenant has an endless hunger, and Jack's broadcast—a twisted, repeating scream—could have released the curse into the world. A terrifying investigation of guilt, complicity, and the price of truth, The Last Broadcast poses the question: What if the things we bury never die? And what if the horror we dread most is the horror we've already become?

The last law

The Last Law (Hanya ada satu hukum: Bertahan atau mati.) Dunia telah berubah menjadi ladang kematian. Setelah perang nuklir meledakkan peradaban, yang tersisa hanyalah gurun radioaktif, reruntuhan kota yang sunyi, dan manusia-manusia yang saling menerkam demi setetes air. Tidak ada lagi negara, hukum, atau belas kasihan—yang ada hanyalah kekuatan dan kelicikan. Di tengah dunia yang hancur, Raine hanya punya satu tujuan: bertahan hidup. Tidak ada ambisi besar, tidak ada dendam atau misi penyelamatan—hanya dirinya, pisau di pinggang, dan insting yang selalu berbisik bahwa satu kesalahan bisa berarti kematian. Kelompok tirani menguasai sumber daya yang tersisa, menjadikan air lebih berharga daripada nyawa. Mereka adalah kelompok berdarah dingin, dan Raine jelas harus berhati hati agar terhindar dari kematian,tapi bayangan mereka selalu mengintai, siap merebut apapun yang bisa dipakai untuk bertahan hidup. Setiap hari adalah perjudian antara melawan, bersembunyi, atau melarikan diri. Namun, di dunia yang telah mati ini, sesuatu masih bergerak. Desas-desus beredar—tentang tempat yang belum tersentuh kehancuran, tentang sesuatu yang seharusnya tidak ada di dunia ini. Raine tidak peduli. Dia tidak ingin terlibat. Tapi saat hidupnya yang selama ini bersembunyi terguncang oleh peristiwa yang tak terduga, dia dihadapkan pada pilihan: tetap bertahan di bayang-bayang atau melangkah menuju sesuatu yang bisa mengubah segalanya. Di dunia tanpa hukum, berapa harga yang harus dibayar untuk tetap hidup?
