The Second Hour (Twin Axiom)

You Were Never Irreplaceable

This Hour governs themes of replacement, imposters, and doppelgängers. It speaks in a doubled voice, or in the voice of someone you know well (but slightly off). It is usually represented by dialogue that is written in strikethrough or typed on top of already existing words.

This Hour is good for the following kinds of horror:

  • Horror due to derealization
  • Horror pertaining to gaslighting
  • Horror pertaining to exclusion

Some touchstone media that captures the vibe of this Hour include the following:

  • The Mandela Catalogue
  • Us
  • Lost Highway
