The Ninth Circle

The Eight Circles of Hell have been common speculation for hundreds of years, but modern sins require modern punishments. Enter: the Ninth Circle.

Paranoia has always been a part of Benjamin Leon's life. Night terrors, panic attacks, and sleep paralysis are everyday obstacles. After seventeen years of trauma, he has finally become accustomed to the terror. Medications, therapy, yoga ... he does all he can to keep his fear at bay.

However, a new predator stalks its prey in the dead of night.

When the demon from his childhood nightmares reappears at his bedside late one night, all of his once "irrational" fears come to life. It begins to move objects around the house and triggers hallucinations, but when the Other chooses to attack Ben late one night, he must make a choice.

Will he fight back, or return to the Ward?
