Summary

A night shift nurse at a long-term care facility recounts recurring encounters with a tall man in black, described consistently by unrelated residents and staff. Initially attributing these sightings to dementia or fatigue, she begins witnessing the figure herself alongside colleagues. Unexplained events, such as emergency cords pulling themselves, further challenge her skepticism. The story explores the tension between medical explanations and the persistent, shared nature of these paranormal experiences.
