The concept here is ten strangers arrive at a hotel, find out they're way more connected than they initially realize, as a series of odd coincidences and mysterious deaths play out over the course of a night. While all of this is happening, a mass murderer named Malcolm Rivers awaits execution as new evidence pertaining to his case is revealed, including a journal with prose that looks like it was written by eleven different people. The first time through, pertinent detectives --- And it's gonna be a long October, and I don't have reasons to believe, in much of anything, alright https://imgur.com/1e1e70S ...
