In 2025, Torbay’s faded English Riviera pulses with a vengeful hum, a dark force born from the Victorian architecture that once defined its glory. When teenager Jago is found dead in the crumbling 62-70 Victoria Street, his body etched with glowing spirals, five unlikely heroes—a synesthetic music therapist, a drag queen, a haunted expat, an ex-cop, and a frustrated architect—uncover a chilling conspiracy. Guided by Ania, a mysterious AI whispering in their minds, they navigate Torbay’s decaying landmarks: the desecrated Crossways site, the rotting Torquay Pavilion, Paignton’s soulless seafront hotels, and the neglected Station Square. As Torbay Council’s incompetence and greed fuel the town’s decline, the hum unleashes Victorian retribution, warping reality with spiral portals and ghostly gaslight. Hiding Ania’s voices for fear of madness, the group must confront a cosmic entity and their own demons to save Torbay—or face the tycoons’ wrath.
