| Front Cover |
For Dr. Emily Flesher, a nightmare, ten years in the making, is about to return
with a vengeance.
Something strange and unusual is happening in the town of Weston West Virginia.
After eight years of lying dormant, the Weston State Hospital has been shaken from its slumber and the demons of its shrouded
past seem to be seeking revenge. One after another, former employees of the institution have suddenly began dropping dead
with no logical explanations.
Additionally, phantom lights and unearthly noises are now emanating from within
the walls of the former asylum.
Falsely believing she had left the memories of her years at the hospital well behind
her, Dr. Flesher...a former Weston resident who once held a deep affection for the hospital...is abruptly thrust unwillingly
into a bizarre world of sudden death, hauntingly realistic nocturnal visions, and professional ghost hunters who are in need
of her help.
Can Emily help them solve the riddles of the Weston Hospital before its vindictive
spirits claim her too?

| Emily's Hospital, Circa 1970s |
Dr.
Emily Flesher’s Nigthmare has now become a grim, and very personal reality.
Thus far, spirits of the rudely
awakened Weston State Hospital have claimed the lives of seven former employees, confounded the minds of both local and state
investigators, and forced Emily into a maddeningly surealistic world of ghosts and ghost hunters.
Drafted into service by an elite
group of paranormalists, Dr. Flesher is now facing the ultimate test of both mind and body. To halt the wave of hauntings
and death, she must now accompany her newly aquired "ghost hunter" friends inside the walls of the hospital itself. Additionally,
Emily now knows all-too-well, that she will soon have to face, not only the ghosts of the hospital, but the demons of her
own past.
With lives on the line…perhaps even their own…can Emily and her friends uncover the secrets
of the Weston State Hospital without becoming its next victums?
"Knock, knock...wake up ol' girl!"
