Persephone Lost

A chilling sci-fi horror on the far edge of Neptune, where a missing supply ship brings something inhuman to the Deepwatch station.

Neptune Deepwatch stands as humanity’s most distant outpost, a silent observation station orbiting the planet’s storm-wracked surface. Months overdue, the ISV Persephone finally arrives—its lights dim, its systems running on reserve power, and not a single crew member aboard. Inside, the station team discovers traces of a biological horror. The ship’s research samples from Europa’s subsurface ocean have unleashed a parasitic organism—one that burrows into the spinal column, replacing the nervous system and consuming its host from within. What began as a routine transfer mission becomes a nightmare of containment, infection, and impossible choices. With the parasite spreading and the Persephone’s cargo too valuable to destroy, the remaining crew must weigh survival against duty, and science against humanity itself. Persephone Drift delivers claustrophobic tension, biological horror, and cosmic dread in a story that redefines the haunted ship.
