"On 4 December 1872, a ship was found drifting with no one aboard." Mystery and strange-history channels are pure script. Paste yours and Nova narrates it with captions timed to every word over looping footage.

## What you get

### Your research, word for word

Nova reads exactly what you approve — dates, names and all.

### Captions on every word

Word-timed captions so the story holds on mute.

### Any language

Write it in English, French, Spanish, Hindi or another language — the captions stay in the language you wrote.

## FAQ

### How do I make mystery shorts without showing my face?

Paste the script into Nova's faceless mode, choose a voice, and get back a vertical short with captions and footage.

### Can Nova write the script?

Give it the case or a one-line idea and press "Write it for me" — you get a draft to fact-check and edit before rendering.

### Is it free?

Your first faceless short is free — no card. Nova gives every new account one full faceless render so you can judge the voice, the captions and the finished video before paying for anything. After that, buy shorts in a pack with no subscription, or any paid plan — from $15/month — makes them unlimited.
