The Last Broadcast

Written by Ted Lazaris

A mysterious emergency broadcast hijacks every screen on Earth, and one family discovers their world was never real.

The story

“Do not look outside”

The Last Broadcast

It started with a strange emergency transmission hijacking TVs, radios and phones worldwide. The message was simple: “Do not look outside. Do not answer the door. Do not leave.” Within hours, entire cities fell silent.

Journalist Ryan Cole never believed in conspiracy theories, but when his best friend Mason uncovers proof that the broadcast is no accident, Ryan and his estranged wife Claire, a scientist, race to uncover the truth. Their daughter Lila seems to know more than she should.

As their reality begins glitching, the family find themselves hunted by forces that erase people from existence. The broadcast isn’t a warning. It’s the countdown to a complete reset.
