MILK BABY
When Kei checks into the Dream Baby Maternity Home, she initially has no reason to suspect that anything is amiss. However, her anxiety grows as unsettling visions of her unborn child begin to haunt her mind. As the disturbing truth about this maternity home reveals itself, Kei will discover that her instincts are not the product of maternal hysteria but premonitions of the horrifying reality that awaits her.
