Bumpers

Bumpers follows Eddie Mercer, a lonely pinball addict whose lifelong comfort in arcade machines becomes a doorway into something horrifying. When he discovers a mysterious machine called The King's Court, Eddie is pulled into a nightmare of flashing lights, missing memories, impossible violence, and a cosmic system that feeds on human attention.As Detective Lena Torres investigates a string of grotesque deaths tied to arcades, livestreams, and electronic screens, she and Eddie uncover the terrifying truth: the machines are not haunted by ghosts, but by something far older and more dangerous-an intelligence that lives inside loops, rewards, addiction, and the systems people willingly give themselves to.Together, Eddie and Torres must fight an evolving horror that turns victims into players, bodies into machinery, and attention into fuel. But the deeper they go, the more they realize the game was never confined to one arcade.It was already everywhere.
