Some people believe that when in a comatose your inner spirit wanders the earth until you wake. Some believe you just black out and then you wake up, as if not even a full day has passed. The few that know the truth behind the theories, wake up, terrified to the point where remembering becomes too painful. So, they don’t remember.

What if there was a world that you go to when you’re on the brink between life and death.

What if there was a world that determines if you’re strong enough to finish facing reality or not.

Scary, unruly, murderous monsters and fiends of the night come to play with their new humanly toys as the darkened, pitch black, and ominous sky mourns the fright that these humans may face.

As the grim reaper, with his eyes of bitter amusement, watches the chosen ones live on through the continuous night struggling.

A world in which all boundaries are broken and there are no laws and rules. A strong mind and a strong heart shall be needed to conquer these dark, eerie, and strange days.

The grim reaper stands perched on a dim lit streetlight, his black robe blowing softly within the empty forsaken winds. He gazes at his new list the devil gave him. The short list of names and descriptions beheld the new ‘friends’ the devil’s lovely little harmless monsters will have. The grim reaper laughed maniacally as he read the list, deciding each ones fate within this realm.

There are:

Marcy is a young, hope filled, happy woman. Marcy works as a doctor at a children’s hospital. Marcy is happily married with three bustling children. She goes into work every morning before the sun comes up and leaves work at midnight. Accidents happen almost every day on the road she takes which leads her peaceful home. She takes this road with caution and the belief that nothing bad will happen to her.

Derrick is a teenage boy, who hates every second of his waking life. Derrick has tried to commit suicide at least 10 times in the last sad year. Derrick is bullied every day at school, and he comes home to his drunken father and faces his wrath.

Marissa is a girl that's in a band, and is happy with her life. She’s a strong, sharp, and sassy woman. With sassiness always comes an enemy.

These three people are going to go on the ride of their life, a ride of survival, betrayal, deception, and lies. Do they have what it takes to come back to life? Or will they all fail miserably at their attempts and continue on to the depths of heaven or to the blazing, hot, and intense fires of hell.

The grim reaper smiles wickedly, rolls up his list, and neatly ties a blood red thin ribbon around it. He grabs his black, sharp, deadly scythe with his death bringing skeleton hands and slashes a hole in the dense air, causing a frightening and vicious, spiral vortex to appear. He looks out into the swirly vortex and thinks about his first victim, his first victim appears. He smiles evilly as he studies the human, imagining the terror that will come over the poor being

He takes one threatening and slow step forward with his long, thin, skeletal leg and enters the realm of the living. None can see him here as he stalks his next prey and waits for the time to appear within their fear stricken eyes and send them screaming to the realm of fear.
