Playground Laughter follows three friends on a countryside camping trip that starts lighthearted but soon darkens when they discover an abandoned school hiding unsettling secrets. Childhood nostalgia clashes with creeping dread as playful banter twists into chilling tension.
They experience how familiar places can conceal unexpected darkness. As unease grows and unseen forces creep closer, they feel the ordinary become unrecognisable. This story reflects on memory, innocence, and how laughter often masks deeper fears. It’s a haunting reminder that even the most familiar places can hide terrors we never expect.
