Titel: The Fading

Sammendrag: Noel Shaker lever med en sær gave: han kan fra barnsben pludselig forsvinde, som om han bliver usynlig, uden at kunne styre det. Det, der kunne være en superkraft, udvikler sig til en psykisk belastning og en forbandelse, der isolerer ham fra andre mennesker. Da han opdager, at nogle få personer kan se ham under hans “fading”, og at hans evne hænger sammen med en ond, andenverdslig kraft og en hensynsløs drabsmand, tvinges han til at undersøge oprindelsen til sin tilstand. Jagten fører ham ind i et mørkt, overnaturligt mysterium, hvor grænsen mellem virkelighed, sindssyge og dæmonisk indblanding udviskes. "The Fading" er en intens horror-thriller om identitet, usynlighed, frygt og kampen mod en ubegribelig ondskab.
