Ghosts. The two most popular horror writers of all time are challenged by their agents to collaborate for one week on creating the best horror story ever written.
Never having met before, the authors meet at a site arranged by their agents-a remote Victorian house in a secluded area in New England. The house is said to have the perfect ambiance, as it has a legend of being haunted and is adjacent to a crumbling and overgrown cemetery that dates back 200 years. They are left there, alone, together, in this eerie mansion with no way to contact the outside world.
Both harbor a hidden hatred for each other's work that they both share in their secret lives.
As they write, they play an underlying game of cat and mouse, each trying to get into the other's mind and soul. Unexpectedly, during a nighttime storm, a young, beautiful woman dressed in a soiled and tattered white wedding gown is found alone in the cemetery near an open grave. With no memory of who she is, or where she is from, she attracts them both with her alluring mysteriousness. Is she just a part of their writers' imagination, or is she real? Was she sent there by their agents to help them create a story, or is she a real ghost come-to-life to take them back to the grave with her?
The search to find the answer takes each writer into his own personal madness, resulting in a real-life horror story, more terrifying than anything either one of them ever wrote. There is only one possible ending, someone must die!

THE TRUTH ALWAYS RISES TO THE TOP-AND SO DO THE DEAD. - When two young women from the same town are found dead in the Erie Canal, - When a strange man in a remote farmhouse holds a secret from the police, - When a magician conjures up the dead, - When your best friend is stalked by her obsessed ex-lover...it's time to start worrying.
Sue Gainer has a lot to worry about as she starts her career as a private investigator in a hometown detective agency. When a missing person's case is dropped in her lap that ends in murder, the P.I. faces unusual and desperate suspects and unlocks the clues that lead to the surprising truth-and soon finds herself in deep water with a killer.

A Nice Place to Live. A Nice Place to Die.
Someone is killing old people. The quaint and quiet Sunny Side Up Retirement Home is known as the last stop on a life journey before entering the pearly white gates of Heaven - but now it has become the doorway to Hell.
On a cold and rainy night, an evil, soulless Killer roams the Retirement Home hallways, forcing intended victims to share their life story before he decides whether they live or die. Their stories unfold with many twists and turns, revealing their innermost secrets of lives filled with happiness and sadness, joy and pain.
As the number of murdered residents increases, it becomes apparent that the Killer is treating death like a game. Each killing has a beginning, middle, and end story as the killer plays cat and mouse with each person. Acting as both their Judge and Jury, is this some sort of a random murderous game, or a night of planned and bloody revenge? Or maybe something else? And why old people?
For the elderly people living in the Sunny Side Up Retirement Home who are part of this blood- filled nightmare there is only one ending - death.
