Statement Of Intent

The title of my TV drama will be called Blink Twice. My narrative resolution would be a shadow always lurking behind someone and one day on their way back home they see a ominous figure(antagonist) with a scythe and it ends with a boy being subjected to human experiments with technology where it will use wires.
