Death of a Vlogger

Graham is introduced as a once-popular vlogger whose viewership has declined. He struggles to stay relevant and contemplates regaining his audience through sensational content. The setting is his apartment studio, where cameras and comments shape his day-to-day life.

During a livestream, Graham records something he believes is proof of the supernatural, instantly spiking his viewership. The encounter transforms his online status from fading to trending, as millions watch and speculate. The moment unfolds in his live setup, fueling speculation and hype.

Graham teams with Steve, an online ghost hunter, to capitalize on the renewed fame. They plan collaborative videos and staged fright moments to maximize engagement. The collaboration marks a shift toward monetizing fear for clicks.

A professional journalist and debunker, Alice, investigates the haunting and uncovers that it was fake. She possesses footage showing Graham and Steve admitting that the videos were fabricated. The investigation threatens to derail their carefully built narrative.

Public backlash erupts as the exposé hits the internet, damaging Graham's reputation. Steve and Erin endure less scorn, while Graham bears the brunt of the social fallout. The online world frays around him as trust dissolves.

An insincere apology video backfires when a ghostly apparition briefly appears in the background. The eerie interruption underscores the staged nature and deepens public distrust. The incident marks a turning point in Graham's public image.

Graham continues releasing more videos, growing increasingly unhinged and lashing out at Steve, whom he suspects of orchestrating the hauntings. The content spirals into paranoia as viewers speculate about real supernatural involvement. The online studio becomes a pressure chamber for Graham.

Graham confides in Erin that he needs help but insists on one final night in his flat to gather definitive proof. He hopes this will vindicate him in the eyes of viewers. The plan sets the stage for a dangerous, obsessive pursuit of proof.

During the last night, Graham is attacked by a ghostly figure and seems trapped in a spatial loop, unable to leave the building. The apparition pushes him down the stairs, causing him to lose consciousness. The lines between reality and fabrication blur in the claustrophobic space.

An interview with Erin reveals that Graham survived the fall and has entered therapy. She states that he plans to quit social media, while Alice predicts he will return once released from the hospital. The public story shifts toward recovery and reinvention.

Alice points out that the second haunting was also fake and that the entire scenario was orchestrated by Graham, Erin, and Steve, who share a business email and have collaborated before. The documentary framework reveals a long-form manipulation scheme. Trust in the participants collapses entirely.

Graham returns to the internet as predicted, insisting the hauntings were real. During a livestream he proclaims it all real and hangs himself just as a paper levitates, leaving viewers to decide what actually occurred. The ending invites ambiguity about whether the final act was real or staged.
