The year is 2000. You are a man without a name, without a past, living under a pseudonym, like a shadow lost in the world. No family, no memories - only a vague feeling that your life was once connected to this abandoned mental hospital. Or does it just seem that way to you?

The nightmares have not gone away for the past few weeks: walls, whispering voices, images dissolving in the darkness. You decide to return to where it all probably began.

But the hospital is no longer empty. It is being restored. The administrator, after listening to your confused story, lets you in, but with one condition: do not go up to the second and third floors. Leave before six in the morning - otherwise the builders will arrive.

You wander the corridors, peering at the walls, looking for at least something familiar. Gradually, you learn dark rumors: the previous director did something terrible here. They say he had an invention - a strange, crazy one, which never worked. After the failure, he seemed to break down, and then... disappeared.

Goosebumps run down your spine. The new director is his pen pal, William Crowley. He decided to continue his friend's work.

The forbidden floor beckons. You go up... and in the semi-darkness of the lab you run into him.

- Who are you? - his voice cuts the silence. - What are you doing on the second floor? How did the administrator even let you in?

You don't know the answers. And you certainly don't realize that **you** were once that very director. William doesn't recognize you - you've never seen each other in person.

But the truth is out there. And it's scarier than any nightmare.
