Twenty-five years after his brother was taken, Jake Richardson is drawn back to the town that buried its children.
The Story
The small community of Eidolon Crossing once boasted a flourishing economy and great prosperity, fueled by an amusement park at the edge of town. Then the child murders began. One by one, murdered children were unearthed on the amusement park property. Finally, the macabre publicity shut the park down entirely and it was abandoned. Jake Richardson is drawn back to Eidolon Crossing, the town where his brother was taken from him 25 years ago. The spirits of the many murdered children begin to contact Jake. He is led back to the abandoned amusement park — and here, in this decaying park, Jake will unlock the horrible secrets of this sinister, blood-soaked town.
