Peter Jonker was just a boy when the darkness found him.

Terrified and vulnerable, he fell under the spell of the enigmatic master painter Poolman—a man whose nightmarish canvases pulsed with a strange, terrifying power. Through these haunting works, Peter was drawn into the blood-soaked legends of Wodan, god of the ancient Germanic tribes, and the brutal, fearless berserkers of the north.

But these weren’t just stories.
Something in the shadows answered.

As pain and fear tore through his young mind, Peter unlocked something deep within himself—something ancient, raw, and otherworldly. Whispers began he has immortal powers.

Now grown, Peter is unraveling. Haunted by the violent visions of his childhood, his grip on reality slips—and that’s when they come. Strangers, drawn to his vulnerability, with secrets of their own and plans more twisted than he could ever imagine.

And in the darkness, Wodan calls.
He wants Peter to march with the Army of the Dead—the berserkers reborn to wreak havoc once more. As Peter’s world spirals into madness, death stalks him. Four people are dead. Is he a murderer—or a pawn in a terrifying game?

The truth lies buried in his shattered mind.
And only hypnosis can tear it free.
