'Nick Wheeler’s subject matter has always been controversial. A venerated photographer motivated to capture the malign elements of human existence – suicide as illusion and artifice – his career is suddenly in tatters after a near-fatal work accident plunges him into a coma.

'A sleep paralysis victim, Nick’s descent into oblivion ushers him back to where it all began: winters spent in the rugged foothills of Deception Pass. It was here, among the secret grottos and old-growth forests, where ancient forces first showed their hand: Shadow Men capable of paralyzing the body and manipulating generations into serving an otherworldly agenda.

'To survive, Nick must confront the past ... and the Shadows, evermore monstrous disguised by human faces.'

'Once a bustling school playing host to the elite of Cranston, Providence Place now sits completely abandoned; a derelict world of memories for the populace of Rhode Island. It's also a place where people come from all over the country seeking their scares. People like Dillon Cook, a budding film-maker who decides to recruit four past pupils for his next independent film. A director with a taste for the tragic places of the world, Dillon sees Providence Place as the perfect backdrop for tragedy to unfold ...'
