Tonight, you’re not a noble, a soldier, or even a proper corpse. You’re a rat-catcher — damp, itchy, underpaid, and increasingly edible. In this slow, immersive bedtime story, we follow a single day in the life of a vermin man in Georgian London. Armed with a sack, a stick, and barely a functioning immune system, you’ll crawl through filth, barter with contemptuous merchants, hallucinate on the job, and get judged by a giant talking rat.

Told in the calm voice of someone who’s long since made peace with suffering, this story blends historical accuracy with dark humor, grotesque detail, and a kind of quiet horror that sticks to your skin.
