The story is set in a quiet, fictional Bavarian town named Unteralterbach, a remote mountain community with an atmosphere full of mystery and tension.
A socially withdrawn 24-year-old named Bernd Lauert moves to this new town in hopes of starting over. Despite his desire to keep a low profile, he is unexpectedly pulled into the workings of the local police station. The authorities recruit him to assist with an ongoing investigation, but it quickly becomes clear that the town hides more secrets than anyone imagined.
As Bernd becomes involved in the case, he notices strange inconsistencies, odd behavior among the townspeople, and unusual events that hint at supernatural influences lurking beneath the surface. What begins as a routine investigation gradually evolves into a deeper mystery involving occult elements, hidden conspiracies, and eerie happenings that blur the line between reality and the unknown.
The more Bernd learns about Unteralterbach, the more he realizes that nothing is what it seems, and he must uncover the truth behind the town’s dark past to escape the dangers that surround him.
