THE STORY
Something happened to Heather Dane when she was but a little girl... Something so traumatic, so disturbing, so unthinkable... it caused her mind to fracture, to split apart, creating another alternate-existence, unique from her own.
Throughout her childhood, it happened again and again... Other alters emerged from the darkest corners of her subconscious mind.
Heather Dane would no longer face what she could not face, nor bear what she could not bear. Her memories were no longer her own.
The others will face them for her now...
Horrid memories of something a sadistic father had done to her years ago. Something she can no longer remember, but must face if she is ever to be whole again.
Tormented by the voices in her head, only the echoes of her nightmares remain.
As a teenager, she is taken from the clutches of her brutal father, only to end up committed to an inhuman institution known as, the Sutton Hills Mental Health Clinic.
After years of experimental treatments, she learns her father has died. Heather Dane is released from the clinic to return to her empty house of terrors... The traumatic memories far removed from her mind, like the lost pieces of a puzzle.
But Heather is NOT TO BE ALONE FOR LONG.
An escaped convict, known as the Sutton-Hills Slasher, breaks into the house and holds Heather captive. Her alternate-personalities begin to surface, one-by-one.
As each alter uncovers a different piece of the puzzle, they must work together to help Heather escape from the tortuous Intruder.
During her captivity, Heather must uncover the origin of her first fracture, if she is to recover from her psychosis.
Her only guide through this mystery is a haunting Little Girl, wearing a red dress. She holds the key to whatever happened to Heather Dane.
