"Daddy, there's a man in our room."

This is the chilling announcement that jolts Alfie awake one night, as his twin daughters are stood at the foot of his bed. Though he finds no man lurking in their room, the girls soon start to refer to someone called Black Mamba; their new 'friend.'

Alfie lives with his daughters, Cassia & Slyvie, in Hart house. His partner, and their mother, Pippa, died recently and suddenly. So when the girls start talking about their new friend, Black Mamba, Alfie assumes it's just a coping mechanism.
However, when the situation starts to become insidious, he turns to Julia, Pippa's twin & psychotherapist, for help.
Pippa and Alfie must face their own grief, the unspoken attraction between them, and who or what Balck Mamba truly is.

This story is deliciously gothic; an ambiguous and claustrophobic chiller.
It builds up the tense & dread slowly, causing the primal fear to heighten.
