The Laundromat at Midnight — Dryer Full of Hair

An 8-second mundane-machine horror short, 16:9, shot as phone footage: a laundromat at midnight, dryer number 7, and the hair that is still growing. The hook: the TV static resolves into the laundromat's interior — filmed from inside dryer 7.
0-2s: Laundromat, midnight, flat fluorescent buzz. A lone customer films while waiting: rows of washers churning, a TV bolted to the wall playing static. One dryer — number 7 — is running though no one loaded it, its drum turning with a sound like breathing.
2-5s: The customer approaches, phone filming, and opens it. Inside: hair. The drum packed with hair — black and grey and blonde — still warm, tumbling. And growing: visibly lengthening, spilling from the drum onto the tile, reaching toward the customer's shoes. The customer slams the door.
5-8s: Through the dryer's round window, the hair presses against the glass — and behind the hair, a face presses too, features obscured, mouth moving as if speaking. The other machines all stop at once. Dryer 7 keeps tumbling. The TV static resolves into the laundromat's interior — filmed from inside dryer 7, looking out. Cut on the static.
Craft: the subjects are the customer (phone-filming, alone), dryer 7 (amber drum light, round window), and the hair as the entity; the laundromat — washers, tile, bolted TV — as the fluorescent stage. Camera: shaky phone footage, a push toward the dryer, a held shot of the round window. Lighting: flat fluorescent with the dryer-drum amber glowing from within. Atmosphere: mundane-machine horror — the familiar turned wrong. Style: phone footage, fluorescent realism, claustrophobic, 24fps, 8 seconds, 16:9.
