Synopsis:

The Empire Builders follows the Dupont family as they continuously travel up one floor higher in their apartment building every time they hear a mysterious and terrifying noise. While each room gets smaller and smaller, their fear and paranoia gets greater and greater. To add to this, each room contains an unknown creature (The Schmurz) that watches their every move.
