Ashley Keaton is a dedicated detective with a bachelor's degree in psychology. She's fascinated by the unknown and curiosity crawls easily on her thoughts.

At midnight of July 31st a series of patients escaped a nearby Mental Facility called Misty Vale Psychiatric Institution in Loughton England. 31,106 people inhabit the metropolitan town and it is said that six convalescents were still missing. Anyone from the Psychiatric Institution is known for murder cases and schizophrenia; civilians are advised to hide until the six are caught.

As being a so-called "hero" in their town from the previous crimes she solved, Ashley is working 24/7 to find out the cause of outbreak and return the mentally ill prisoners for safety of the citizens. 
Experiencing stress, as she claimed, Ashley has been encountering dreams that felt true as if she was drugged to view it as déjà vu. One day, she saw a green eyed man covered in blood and convinced herself that her mind was playing tricks, not until she found out the true origin of the mysterious Misty Vale Psychiatric Institution located on top of a hill surrounded by infinite trees.
Her co-worker, Nate, wasn't who he was meant to be and in order to know the truth behind the secrets of the old town, Ashley was asked to be a sacrifice.

Picking up the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, she sew them one-by-one drawing a conclusion that not everyone around her was true. 

That everything around her is a living fantasy.
