Stanley has a gift for art. But when his creativity takes a dangerous turn, he must decide what kind of mark he truly wants to leave on the world.
Stanley loves to draw, but lately, he's traded his pencils and paints for spray cans and markers. Inspired by the vibrant murals and bold tags covering his city, he decides to take his art to the streets. But one quiet midnight mission goes terribly wrong when Stanley loses his favorite marker and ventures back into the eerie, deserted alleys.
Suddenly, the graffiti comes to life.
What was once colorful and creative transforms into a terrifying, chaotic parade of twisted letters and distorted figures chasing him through the city. Frozen in fear, Stanley must face the consequences of his careless behavior and learn the true difference between celebrated art and destructive vandalism.
