Wrestling fans disappeared every time
0:41
the Crimson Mask performed his signature
0:43
move, and nobody noticed until it was
0:45
too late. The underground wrestling
0:48
circuit in Detroit had always been
0:49
brutal. But when Marcus, the Crimson
0:51
Mask Volkov, joined, things got deadly.
0:55
He wore this ancient red mask covered in
0:57
strange symbols that seemed to move in
0:59
the ring lights. Local promoters didn't
1:02
care where he came from as long as he
1:03
packed the venue. His finishing move was
1:06
called the final bell, and it was unlike
1:08
anything anyone had seen. He'd grab his
1:11
opponent's head, whisper something in a
1:13
language that made your ears hurt, and
1:14
then twist. The sound that followed
1:17
wasn't just bones breaking. It was like
1:19
reality itself was tearing. The first
1:22
victim was Tommy the Tank Rodriguez.
1:25
After Vulkoff performed the final bell,
1:27
Tommy just vanished midscream. The crowd
1:30
thought it was some kind of special
1:32
effect. The ref counted to 10 on an
1:34
empty ring while everyone cheered. Then
1:36
it happened again and again. Five
1:39
wrestlers gone in 3 weeks. But the
1:41
crowds kept growing. People started
1:43
recording trying to catch the trick, but
1:45
the videos always came out corrupted,
1:48
showing only static at the crucial
1:49
moment. Sarah Chen, a local journalist,
1:52
started investigating when her brother
1:54
Jake, an amateur wrestler, went missing
1:57
after challenging Vulov. She snuck into
1:59
the abandoned warehouse where Vulov
2:01
trained. What she found changed
2:03
everything. The walls were covered in
2:05
missing person posters going back
2:07
decades. Different cities, different
2:09
names, but always the same red mask and
2:12
grainy security footage. In the center
2:15
of the room sat an ancient wrestling
2:16
ring with symbols carved into the
2:18
canvas. the same symbols from his mask.
2:22
That night, Sarah watched from the
2:24
shadows as Vulov performed a ritual. He
2:27
wasn't just wrestling. He was feeding
2:29
something hungry that lived between the
2:31
ropes. Each victim's soul was trapped in
2:33
his mask, making him stronger. The final
2:36
show was packed. Vulkoff announced his
2:38
retirement match against anyone brave
2:40
enough to face him. Sarah knew this was
2:42
her chance. She'd studied the symbols,
2:45
learned the counter ritual. But as she
2:47
stepped into that ring, she realized
2:49
she'd made a terrible mistake. The mask
2:52
wasn't just a prison for souls. It was a
2:54
doorway and something much worse than
2:57
Vulov was waiting
