What begins as a simple school project — writing to a penpal — quickly spirals into a nightmare that haunts one boy for years. Strange photographs, eerie encounters, and unsettling realizations slowly reveal a horrifying truth: someone has been watching him, stalking him, since he was a child. As he pieces together disturbing clues from his past, he uncovers a chilling secret that turns his world upside down. Who was really behind the letters, and how far will they go to get close to him again? This is the story of 'Penpal' a tale that will leave you questioning who’s watching from the shadows...
