Why these

If you're after that specific blend of claustrophobic entrapment and creeping dread where a deceptive space becomes inescapable, you'd likely find similar ground in Distorted or Lethal Eviction—both treat the building itself as an active threat that slowly corrodes its inhabitants' grip on reality and agency. The institutional horror angle, where complicit systems trap you through false security, runs through The Caregiver and The Housemaid, though these lean slightly heavier on domestic psychological manipulation than workplace entrapment. If you want the paranoia-within-isolation formula without losing the supernatural edge, Lilith or Winifred Meeks might hit closer, since they layer historical secrets and architectural dread in ways that build that same suffocating sense of being caught in something older and more corrupt than you realized.
