The Glitch in the Matrix

Ten Signs You Might Be an NPC in Someone Else’s Simulation

By: Lucan Merrian

Narrated by: Chris Reynolds

What if your life isn’t your own—but a line of code in someone else’s game?
Have you ever questioned reality? Not in the abstract, philosophical way, but in the eerie, spine-tingling moments when the world just doesn’t seem quite right? Like when a stranger says exactly what you were thinking. When the same numbers keep following you. When time seems to skip. Or when you look in the mirror and wonder: am I real—or just playing a role I didn’t choose?

In The Glitch in the Matrix, author Lucan Merrian dares you to follow the breadcrumbs of doubt, pattern, and absurdity into the heart of the simulation theory. But this isn’t a textbook or a tech manual. It’s a thought experiment you live through—one strange sign at a time. Drawing from philosophy, psychology, quantum mechanics, and pop culture, this book lays out ten disturbing clues that might suggest you’re not the main character in your own story... and maybe never were.

Inside, you’ll explore:

• Déjà vu, repeating numbers, and uncanny coincidences—what they mean in a world that might be scripted.
• The eerie neutrality of background people—and why some interactions feel hollow or oddly mechanical.
• The illusion of free will—and whether choice is just part of the programming.
• Existential dread and disconnection—why some people feel the world is emotionally vacant or “off.”
• Mandela Effects, memory inconsistencies, and fractured timelines—possible evidence of updates, resets, or reality shifts.

This isn’t about paranoia. It’s about awareness. The Glitch in the Matrix doesn’t promise answers—it delivers unsettling clarity. Each chapter peels back a layer of the everyday, revealing just how fragile and fabricated reality might be.
