Masked Ward

An overcast night. A clown-masked figure’s laughter echoes down the hospital hallway. Shugo, the on-call relief doctor, is sealed inside with 64 strangers while the attacker chains the front doors. Hitomi, a bleeding teenager in a gym uniform, is the price for free passage. Kimura wraps the chaos in tight corridors and masked malice—J-horror meets hostage claustrophobia.
