They called him Midnyte… a shadow-cat stitched from darkness, neon, and guitar solos. Born on the edge of a void highway, not from fur and bone, but from feedback, blood-smoke, and the final scream of a B-side track nobody remembers anymore.
He didn’t walk. He hunted. Through the graveyards of cinema’s fever dreams, the cursed backwoods of Evil Dead, the red hallways of the Overlook Hotel. A blur of black fur and glowing green eyes, streaking across landscapes that had long since bled out their last survivors.
Every chase was a solo. Every escape a riff. The world bent when he ran. Roads twisted like serpents; stars broke their orbits to follow his trail. You could hear the pulse in the pavement, a drumbeat borrowed from Dangerous Toys, guitars that wailed like the banshee from Phantasm.
They tried to trap him in their nightmares. To chain him in VHS loops of scream queens and fog machines. But Midnyte wasn’t made for endings. He was the bridge solo that melts the tape, the glowing trail through a Lovecraftian dreamscape.
You ever hear claws echo off cosmic stone? Ever see eyes brighter than the headlights of a phantom rig barreling through the Fog? Then you’ve seen him. You’ve seen the myth.
This ain’t your world anymore. It’s Midnyte’s highway now… and the ride never ends.
This what happens when you spend all your parent’s money on VHS rentals as a kid in the 80’s.
