What he surmised must have been a simple case of absented-mindedness - losing his way while his mind pondered scientific problems - turned insidiously into terror.

Nothing was as it should have been. He returned to his laboratory to find it... Grant Templeton strolled home from his lab one night to learn that he no longer lived there.
